How to Draw Lightning Bolts
1
To start drawing the lightning bolts, all you have to do is draw three striking lines in a zig zag motion.

You will now draw out the first lightning bolt like you see here, and then draw out the last bolt which is the largest. When that is all done you can then move to the next step.

Now you will draw out the middle bolt just by outlining the single zig zag line you drew in step one. You might as well erase the lines and shapes that you drew in step one.

You can now start sketching in the detailing to add more texture and definition to the bolts like you see here. The detailing should be done along the edges.

Here is what the finished bolts look like when you are all done. Now you can go ahead and color them in, and then that's all. You now have yourself some awesome lightning bolts that can be used for anything you wish.
