  Drawing a metal water bottle, it might help to find references online. Study the images and try to recreate them. What helps make it look more realistic is studying the way light reflects off of the metal, and the way the metal changes in color with the shadows. If you have a metal water bottle at home, you can use that for reference and inspect that as well. Drawing a metal water bottle uses the same process as drawing any other water bottle, you just have to take into note that light is affected by metal different than the way it is affected by plastic.

  If you're drawing a crushed plastic water bottle, try taking an empty one from your house and crushing it, then use it as a model. Study the way that the plastic caves in on itself and overlays the other indents after it has been crushed. Try to recreate this on paper, paying attention to the details of the lines and the way the water bottle sits and reacts to the light, including its shadows.

  If you have already drawn your bottle, you can draw a teardrop shape where the water is dripping from the bottle. Then draw little dome shapes where water is collecting on the bottle if it is collecting on the sides of the image. If not, draw circles. then add your color, highlights, and shading to the droplets. Try adding white to make them look more realistic.

About This Article

Article Summary X

To draw a water bottle, start by sketching a rectangular shape for the cap. Draw a narrow band under the cap to represent the seal that breaks when you twist the cap off. Then, add two short lines extending down from the cap to represent the neck of the bottle. Continue the lines of the neck but curve them out and away from each other to represent the top part of the bottle. Next, draw the body of the bottle. If you want, you can do this by sketching in a basic rectangular shape, then adding details like the ridges, curves, and indentations. For instance, some water bottles are slightly narrower in the middle to make them easier to grip. Fill in other important details such as the ridges around the cap and the label on the bottle, then go over the outlines of your drawing in ink. Erase any guidelines or extra pencil marks. If you like, add color and shading to make the bottle look more realistic.
