One reason for this is that at this angle part of the background wing will be hidden behind the aeroplane making information technology appear shorter. The other is that due to perspective objects that are farther away will appear smaller.

When drawing the forepart fly add information technology overlapping the outline of the main torso of the jet and erase the part that should be covered by it afterwards.

When done with the wings you can as well add together a tiny hint of the frazzle at the back of the main body. Evidence information technology with just a modest bump curve as in the example.

To color the fighter jet you tin use paints, markers or colored pencils and get with the following colors:
