How to Draw a Shark Tattoo

Description: There really isn't words to describe this next drawing tutorial except, to tell you that you will be learning "how to draw a shark tattoo", step by step. The reason why I chose to do a design of this nature is because a few days ago I watched Jaws II and it was pretty bloody. More gruesome then the first, which wasn't that bad at all. I thought it would be cool to draw a sketch on one of the scariest sharks that ever hit the movie screen. Initially the tutorial was going to be called how to draw Jaws, but then I remembered I have a pretty cool tutorial on a shark that looks a lot like the one from Jaws. Besides, I really wanted to focus more on the mouth or teeth of this animal. Sharks or Great Whites, have razor sharp teeth that will tear a hole through anything they sink their mouths into. Each tooth is in the shape of a triangle and there is two sets of teeth in the mouth of this beast. The tips of each tooth is like an ice pick, and very sharp. This is a fun design that you can draw in your spare time, it really isn't all that hard. In fact, you don't even have to think of this drawing as a tattoo sketch. The head of this shark would make a perfect addition to any Great White project that might need to do in the future. Have fun with this lesson guys, and look for more upcoming drawing fun. Peace!
