Space Pencil Drawings

Pencil drawings of space: a rocket on the launch pad, a cartoon rocket with portholes, a rocket at the launch site, an astronaut waving and one floating in open space, a cat astronaut, an alien in a flying saucer, a moon rover, Saturn with its rings and the Moon with craters.

They are clear outlines without heavy shading. Sketch the shapes with an HB pencil and add shadows on the spacesuit and the craters with a soft 2B.

Questions and answers

How do you draw an astronaut in pencil?

Start with a round helmet, draw a puffy spacesuit under it, then arms and legs as thick tubes. Shade the helmet glass dark and leave a small white highlight.

How do you draw a rocket easily?

Draw a long body with a pointed nose, a round porthole and three fins at the bottom. Add clouds of smoke and a flame under it with short strokes.

Which space drawing is the easiest for beginners?

Saturn and the Moon with craters: they are built from circles and ovals. After them, try the cartoon rocket and then the astronaut.
