How to Draw the Millennium Falcon

Step 1.


Step one- all you have to do is draw a disc like circle shape for the frame of the Falcon. Next add the detailing structure lines on the top of the starship. Draw a hole on the top and then four guidelines for the front of the Falcon.

Step 2.


In this next step you will start drawing out the structure lines that define the Falcon. The cockpit needs to be detailed and drawn out which is the cylinder shape you see off to the left. You also need to draw the shape of the forward mandibles whic   

Step 3.


In this step you will start sketching out the lining for definition on the forward mandibles as seen here. Add some window shapes to the cockpit and then sketch out the lining details for the armor plating all over the top of the Falcon. After you ta   

Step 4.


This is your last drawing step and what you will do now is add more detailing lines to cockpit, forward mandibles, and the quad laser cannon which is the small circular shape on the top of the starship. Next add the detailing structure lines to the s   

Step 5.


Once you are completely done with the drawing you should end up with a drawing that looks like this. All you have to do now is color it in and you’re done. I hope you enjoyed this long awaited tutorial on how to draw the Millennium falcon step by s

Description: Star Wars, I'm sure you are all familiar with the movie so I really don’t have to go into detail about the movie and what it’s about, so on and so forth. There is a total of like seven or eight lessons that I have submitted so far and I have decided to do another tutorial on a very important starship from the movie series. I think that the Chibi Han Solo that I drew needs his spaceship to feel at home. So for my fifth tutorial I will be showing you how to draw the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars step by step. The Falcon is the ship that belongs to Han Solo and his shipmate Chewbacca. The starship helped the Rebel Alliance conquer some of the greatest victories over the evil Empire with the help of Luke Skywalker, R2-D2, and even Princess Leia. The Falcon was originally a Corellian Engineering Corporation YT-1300 light freighter that Han Solo won from Lando Calrissian during a sabacc game. The Falcon has a saucer shaped hull, a set of forward cargo gripping mandibles, and as you can see in the movie, a cylinder shaped cockpit that is mounted to the side of the ship. This is the area were Solo and Chewbacca attack enemy ships like the TIE-fighters used by the Imperial army. After Han won the Millennium Falcon, he was constantly fixing it up along with his old buddy Chewy. With all the modifications the two did to the starship it was now more like a fighter instead of a freighter. They upgraded the ships weaponry to military class quad laser turrets, and they even installed booster speed enhancements. Han also decided to install an antipersonnel repeating laser to aid them in attempts to make escapes that need to be smooth and fast. Now because all these new modifications were made to the freighter, it often has a failing hyper drive that you will often see Han and Chewy fixing. If you remember correctly the Falcon is the starship that aided cover fire for Luke when he was launching his attack on the first Death Star. After that day Han, Chewbacca and the Falcon repeatedly carried out missions for the Rebel Alliance. In the first old Star Wars Obi-Wan Kenobi hires Han Solo to take him, Luke, C-3PO, and R2-D2 to a place called Alderaan. All in all the entire Falcon was a legendary starship and I am pleased to show you how to draw the Millennium Falcon from Star Wars step by step. As you can imagine, this lesson will go in the advanced section because the ship is very detailed, so you will have to take your time drawing out the starship. I hope you have fun and remember gang, don’t forget to rate and comment the tutorials on the site so other people can get an idea what other members think. Be back soon!
