A starfish is called a Sea Star because it is not a fish.
Sea stars have no brains and no blood. Their nervous system is spread through their arms and their “blood” is actually filtered sea water. They can be iin different bright colors too which frightens those who want to eat them. They if they lose an arm they can grow it back again.
Step 1-
The Sea Stars with 5 arms are the most common and that's what we see here. I began with grey guidelines and a small circle to mark the mouth in the centre. from this circle I drew 5 arms that are not absolutely straight lines, since the Sea Star has no bones. Then I drew an outer line to complete each arm.
Step 2 -
I've airbrushed a yellow orange shade here, but your Sea Star can be red or any other color you like. Then I airbrushed the bumps along each arm with a darker brown and used the same shade for the shadows of the arms.
Step 3 -
To finish the drawing, I pencilled in the bumps to define it more clearly. Last of allI pencilled in the highlights with a paler shade of orange on the bumps and along the arms.
