Space Pixel Art

Space pixel art drawings on a grid: a rocket taking off, an astronaut in a white spacesuit, an alien face, Saturn with its ring and two flying saucers.

Each one has only a few colors and a clear outline. Count the squares row by row from the top, draw the outline first and then fill in the colors.

Questions and answers

How do you make pixel art on graph paper?

Find the top row of the picture and count the squares from left to right. Outline the shape in pencil first, then fill the squares with markers or colored pencils.

Which space pixel art is the easiest?

The flying saucer and Saturn: they have few colors and simple shapes. The astronaut and the rocket take a little longer because of the small details.

What paper do I need for pixel art?

Graph paper or any grid notebook works. Bigger squares give a bigger drawing and are easier for kids.
