How to draw a T-Rex

A simple step-by-step drawing of a T-Rex.

To draw a Tyrannosaurus Rex, you will need:

  • Pencil
  • Eraser
  • Paper
  • Coloured pencils or crayons

T-Rex top tip: Use a pencil, just in case you don’t get it right first time.

  1. Start with a large oval for the body and a smaller circle for the head.
  2. Join them with a curved neck, then add the big, powerful back legs and the long, heavy tail for balance.
  3. Add the tiny arms, the open jaw full of teeth, and a beady eye.
  4. Go over your lines, rub out the rough guides, and colour in your mighty T-Rex.

Did you know?

Tyrannosaurus probably had a mouth full of rotten meat. All that bacteria with no toothbrush and no flossing means T-Rex’s bite could have actually been poisonous.
