Today we will show you how to draw TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimension in Space) from Doctor Who. We will use a technique called drawing in perspective. More specifically, we will be drawing TARDIS in 2 Point perspective. Learn how to draw the TARDIS with the following simple step to step tutorial.

How to Draw TARDIS from Doctor Who with Easy Two Point Perspective Techniques
We draw with perspective drawing techniques in order to make a more realistic 3-dimensional object. In this technique, every set of parallel lines has its own vanishing points.
More specifically, when we are drawing or viewing something in 2 point perspective, we are seeing the object at a corner, and the 2 sets of parallel lines are moving away from us to the vanishing points….as you see above (vp stands for vanishing points).
Step 1
We will be drawing in 2 point perspective which means that we will be using two vanishing points in order to make a more 3 dimensional object. Draw a line and then draw a dot on either end of it (those dots are the vanishing points).
Step 2
Draw three vertical lines close to the right vanishing point.
Step 3
Now take a ruler and draw a line from each dot to the vanishing point on both ends.
Step 4
Draw a few small vertical lines as you see in the illustration above. Draw the lines to both vanishing points from black dots. Notice that the lines that we didn’t need were erased from the last step.
Step 5
Draw a line to the left vanish point and draw a few vertical lines.
Step 6
Draw four vertical lines and draw lines to the left vanishing point for the windows and panels of the door.
Step 7
Draw vertical lines and also draw lines to both vanishing points.
Step 8
Draw some more vertical lines and lines to the vanish points.
Step 9
Draw some vertical lines and draw lines to the left of the vanishing point. Then draw two circles. Draw a long rectangle with rounded corners and draw two curved lines for a handle.
Step 10
Draw curved lines around the lamp and draw a triangle shaped cone on top. Lightly sketch lines to vanishing points and draw letters inside these lines to draw letters in perspective.

I really liked the tutorial it was very helpful thanks again
Hi, I’m currently creating a simple offline free website for my studies. Can I use your finished drawing image to my website?
Sure, go on ahead. Good luck.
I am to lazy to do this at this time you know??
This was super helpful! And hello from the other side.
I can use this for my birthday. And you should do more doctor who stuff. like the sonic screwdriver, the cybermen, daleks, and etc.
Thanks man. I really needed this. Hello from Germany.
Great drawing – I would appreciate a bit more specificity on the drawing in terms of spacing because I am really bad at that. Other than that, kudos for the tutorial.

Very helpful! Thank you so much. Hello from New England!
Hi! I’ve been searching for something like that. Thank you very much. And hello to you from Ukraine))
Hello to you from the US. Glad you liked the tutorial!
This is a womderful tutorial!! I absolutely love the way you set it up also, very easy to follow! My TARDIS drawing looks amazing, so thank you! I hope you make more Doctor Who related tutorials!
Thank you – glad you liked it!
This is brilliant – first, the way you have colour-coded the steps makes it easy to follow. Second, inspired choice of subject – what a fun picture to learn on, and all straight lines! I think my kids are going to love this. Thank you 🙂
Thanks Angela! Glad you like it!
awesome love it
Good job!! I fancied it alot
😀 I think this would help me a lot
I think I will be able to draw myself much better now! : P
Thank You ! 😀
