  • 1 Piece Paper

Instructions
 

  • Draw one large circle with two smaler circles inside. This is the smaller front wheel of the tractor.
  • Draw a larger circle but do so with a jagged line for the tire tread. This will form the rear, larger wheel of the tractor.
  • Draw a medium-sized circle inside the larger, rear wheel. Then draw a smaller circle inside the medium-sized circle.
  • From the 10 O'clock position on the front whell draw a small perpendicular line. Attached to that draw a triangle on its side with rounded corners. This will form the front light.
  • From the top of the light, draw an upward line slightly angled outward for almost one inche. Then right angle a line toward the rear wheel. Draw this line about 4/5ths of the way to the rear wheel and then draw a right angle downward to just below the top of the front wheel.
  • From the bottom of the vertial line between the two wheels, draw a rounded rectrangle as shown. Draw a slightly larger one below it with a small gap. These are the steps into the tractor.
  • Draw two small vertical lines connecting the two steps. From the right side of the larger, bottom step, draw a horizontal line connecting the bottom step to the large, rear wheel.
  • From the left (front) side of the top step, draw a horizontal line to the front wheel.
  • For the front bumper, draw a line extending from the bottom of the hood at a slight outward angle to half-way down the front wheel, then angle it slightly inward for one cm. Finish it with a right angle line to the front wheel.
  • Draw a series of vertical lines on the tractor body extending from the top of the front wheel to the horizontal line above.
  • For the engine exhaust, draw 3 circles to the right (in front) of the steps.
  • Draw an long horizontal rectangle on top of the current tractor body. The front of the rectangle should not extend all the way to the front.
  • From the right side of the horizontal rectangle you drew in the previous step, draw a vertical line about one centimeter. Do a right angle to the left extending almost to the front. Then a shart downard angle line.
  • Draw a vertical rectangle on top fo the body with rounded top. This will be the tractor's exhaust pipe.
  • Draw an upward line lightly angled to the right from the top step. This line angles in a series arching over the rear wheel.
  • Draw a parallel line above the line just drawn above the rear wheel.
  • Draw a horizontal line from the front of the rear wheel hup to the the front body of the tractor connecting just below the top of the body.
  • Draw the cab extending from the right side of the tractor hood upward, then a right angle to the right to almost the rear and then downward to the top of the rear wheel hub.
  • For the tractor roof, draw a thin horizontal rectangle on top of the cab. The ends should extend slightly beyond the sides.
  • For the tractor windows, draw two shapes as shown in the tractor cab section of the drawing.
  • Now you can color the tractor any color you like. Your done.
