How do you draw a Ferris wheel in picture form?

Answer 1

First, you draw a circle, then you draw a another circle bigger than the first one. You draw a long rectangle at the bottom of your circles, then you draw ten smaller rectangles which are your carts. Make sure that your first circle goes through your carts. Next is detail. Curve the bottom of each cart. Then you draw tiny bulb shapes and the wire for your decoration. The wire will be just one line and your bulbs will look like ovals with curved points at one end. Then, if you want, you can draw humans in the carts. Trace over your long rectangle at the bottom of your unfinished Ferris Wheel. Don't trace too hard, because you have to draw a thick pole connecting the rectangle and the first circle. Now, draw yet another circle a little smaller than your very first circle to make the first pole of the actual Ferris Wheel. Then, go back to your carts and draw small poles to connect the carts, because you don't want the carts to fall down and kill all of the people inside of them. Now draw two lines next to each other, like, twenty times all over the first and second big circles to connect them. Draw ANOTHER circle smaller than your second big circle that you ever drew on this drawing to make the second round pole. Draw a circle in the very middle and then another around that to make another round pole. Draw lines connecting the first circle to the middle round pole and cover with wire and lights. Now, final step. Erase construction lines and clean up your final drawing, and there, person out of the wind, is your first Ferris Wheel. Now, if only you knew how to draw every other ride, than you'll have a carnival!

Answer 2

• Take a photo of a Ferris wheel, or find one on images.Google.com.
• Make the photo a layer in the graphics program, Gimp (free on-line).
• Create a transparent layer over the photo.
• Trace the main lines of the Ferris wheel on the transparent layer.
• Remove the photo layer.
