How to Draw Sports Equipment

Drawing cartoon sports equipment is relatively easy. It is simply a matter of making correct shapes and angling the lines to make the shapes look rounded and three-dimensional. Learning to draw cartoon shapes takes a little bit of practice, but in no time you will be making perfect sports equipment drawings.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Paper
• Pencil, pen or marker

1. Draw a baseball bat. Start by drawing a very long and skinny oval-like shape that is fatter at one end and skinny at the other. Make the fat end, which will be the top of the bat, rounded and the smaller end come to a point. Add another small oval around the bottom of the bat (skinny pointed end) to represent the knob at the bottom of the bat.

2. Make a small circle to add a baseball to go along with the bat. Draw a C-shape on one side of the circle. Make a backwards C-shape on the opposite side if the ball. From the top of each curved line to the bottom, make many small lines that cross the curved lines to make the stitches on the baseball.

3. Sketch a larger circle to draw a basketball. Make a C-shape on one side and a backwards C-shape on the opposite side just like you did for a baseball. To make it a basketball, draw a line from top to bottom down the middle and another line that crosses it from side to side. These lines should be curved just a bit to create a three-dimensional illusion.

4. Start a hockey stick by drawing a small rectangle with rounded corners. Draw the stick part by drawing two lines close together from one end on the rectangle at a 45-degree angle.

5. Add a hockey puck to the picture. Draw a small and wide oval. Make two short lines extend straight down from each end of the oval. Connect them together with a curved line to make the puck look three-dimensional.
