Step-by-Step Instructions for Drawing a Bullet
How to Draw a Great Looking Bullet for Kids and Beginners - Step 1
1. Use curved lines to draw a triangular shape, noting the rounded upper point and curved bottom side. Notice, too, that the shape is set at a diagonal angle. This forms the tip of the object. This portion is officially the metal piece known as the bullet, while the term has come to refer to the entire object, known as a round or cartridge.

Learn More About The Bullet Drawing
For most of human history, weapons of war consisted of various types of clubs, blades such as daggers and swords, and piercing, poisoned, or flaming projectiles launched from slings, bows, or catapults. The face of war changed drastically with the invention of the gun around the year AD 1000.
A bullet, such as the one pictured in this drawing guide, is a metal projectile fired by a gun, such as a rifle, pistol, musket, or machine gun. The first bullets were simply lead balls propelled by black powder.
During the 1800s, grooves were developed that put a spin on the bullet, increasing accuracy. The elongated casing was developed, which held its own propellant. This propellant ignites when struck by the gun's firing pin.

Bullets such as this one were once common elements in animated cartoons, such as the Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry. Sometimes, the bullets were even personified, consciously seeking out their victims, as with the Bullet Bills from the Super Mario series. Today, most cartoons for children omit images of guns and bullets.
