To draw the emergency escape windows, first draw two ovals about the center of the plane and over the wing. Next, draw a rectangle around each of the ovals.

To draw the emergency escape windows, first draw two ovals about the center of the plane and over the wing. Next, draw a rectangle around each of the ovals.

To draw the windows, sketch tiny ovals like the ones shown above and keep on drawing them until you reach the rear passenger door.

Coloring and personalizing it with an airlines' livery is optional, but it will make the plane look nicer, and more realistic. I colored mine in United's livery.  I hope you enjoy your new drawing!
