Drawings of Scorpions

You can use this template for your drawings of scorpions.

It is quite an intricate little creature.

To complete your scorpion drawings, all you need to do is draw the legs to appear the same as the claws and the tail.

I did the legs as solid lines to save making the outline too complicated. Put the joins in wherever the legs bend.

Here I have enlarged that drawing from above, so you can see it properly. You might notice the drawing loses quality when it is enlarged.

About Scorpions

A scorpion is an animal and not an insect like many people believe.

It belongs to the arachnid group of animals along with spiders, mites and ticks.

I used the outline for this drawing and did the changes I mentioned above. It turns out ok.

Scorpions are known to be black or a yellowish color.

And, if you want a way to find them at night, they are flourescent under an ultraviolet light.

They have four pairs of legs, a pair of large claws and a pair of tiny pincers. The large claws are used to catch and crush their prey.

The scorpion has a poisonous sting on the end of it's tail.

It is used to stun or kill their prey. The poison in the sting can make people sick but it seldom kills them.

Scorpions are more active at night with insects and spiders being their prey.

You will find scorpions in warm countries in most parts of the world.

And let's not forget the star sign Scorpio - the Scorpion.

The characteristics of a person born under this star sign are: aggressive, intense, moody, passionate, secretive and quick-tempered.

Devote Some Time To Art

If you are thinking of doing drawings of scorpions, it will sure keep you out of mischief for a little while! All those joints and things.

With this drawing, I was experimenting to see if this would be a useful scorpion outline.

I decided to go with the solid lines on the legs, for simplicity.

The scorpion drawings I have provided are very basic so you can use them for any projects you might have. You can always add more detail if you wish.

Enjoy!
