A steaming bowl of ramen is packed with cozy details, and drawing it is a treat. In this walkthrough I will show you how to draw a ramen bowl, working from the bowl itself up to the noodles, egg, and toppings.
Drawing a Ramen Bowl
There are 15 steps here. We shape the bowl first, fill it with noodles, then layer in the soft egg, green onions, and a few extras. The toppings near the end are where it really starts to look appetizing.
The Finished Bowl
Arranging several toppings in one bowl is good practice for composition. If you want to try a different angle, the overhead ramen bowl shows it from directly above. For more Japanese food, the sushi platter makes a nice pairing. Browse the rest on the food drawing hub.
How the Guide Works: Color Key
Each step uses color to show new marks apart from finished ones.
- Grey lines show the base sketch from earlier steps
- Red lines show what to draw in the current step
- Black lines are finished details from previous steps
Sketch the bowl and noodle mass gently so you can adjust the fill. When the layout looks right, ink your final lines, erase the pencil, and color the broth a warm brown with brighter toppings sitting on top for contrast.
