How to Draw Storm Clouds?

Published in Drawing Clouds 1 min read

Drawing storm clouds involves creating a layered and bumpy texture to simulate the turbulent and dynamic nature of these weather formations. Here's how:

  • Start with the Basic Shape: According to the YouTube video reference, begin by making a "bump" as the foundation of your storm cloud (0:28).
  • Add More Bumps: The key to creating a realistic storm cloud is to add more bumps around the initial shape (0:28). Vary their sizes to add to the uneven and turbulent look (0:28).
  • Layering: Build up the cloud by layering these bumpy shapes on top of and beside each other. This will create depth and dimension.
  • Shading: Shading is crucial for conveying the darkness and depth of a storm cloud. Use darker shades in the lower portions and areas where the bumps overlap to simulate shadows.
