In medieval times, people read parchment scrolls announcing information in front of a large crowd. Here's how to draw your own parchment scroll.
Steps
Step 1. Draw a large rectangular shape
It will be the unfolded sheet of parchment.
Step 2. Add two horizontal cylindrical shapes, one at the top and one at the bottom
It will be the two wooden sticks.
Step 3. Define the outline of the papyrus sheet
A few tears will give your parchment roll an even more worn and weathered look.
Step 4. Add side handles to the ends of both sticks
Look at the picture and use it as a guideline.
Step 5. Review your figure with black ink
Try to create an uneven line of different intensities, partly thinner and partly thicker. Your drawing will look more professional.
Step 6. Erase the pencil guidelines and start coloring your drawing
Use light and warm colors, such as beige and pale yellow.
