How To Make Sharks Directions

Step 1

I did a practice drawing of a shark face on a piece of paper before I did it on the golf ball.

When you know what you want to do, take your permanent marker and draw the mouth, teeth and outline around the mouth on the golf ball.

Step 2

We are doing one gray shark and one blue shark. Paint the darker color on the ball, outside of the outline. One will be the darker gray and the other will be the darker blue. This will take at least two coats.

Step 3

Once dry, cut out fins and tail. The dorsal fins are triangles, as are the two smaller side fins. The tail is also a basic shape.  

Step 4

Glue them in place. You can use hot glue or other glue.

Step 5

How to make sharks is coming together. Glue on google eyes.

Step 6

Take the lighter colors and paint a pointed area between the eyes and follow it along to the tail.

Step 7

Cut small strips from scraps.  Glue them on the edge of the eyes, making them look angry.

That’s it! Now you know how to make sharks! Don’t let them sneak up on you! Keep your eyes open!
