"We're going to draw some cartoon sports equipment. Very very easy and it spices up your cartoon people who can now play sports. Simplest thing we have is a bat. Tada... fat on the end and skinny towards the handle. Big little lump on the end. And then go like that to show that that's the handle part. And a little line right there and a few little texture lines. There you have our bat. Baseball, I'm going to draw it bigger. A baseball would only be about that big, since that's the bat. But I'm going to draw it bigger so you can see. Here's our baseball. Just go bloop bloop, and make stitch marks on those lines. And everbody says thats a baseball if I ever saw one. Basketball. Almost the same idea. Just go like this, bloop bloop. Looks like a giant baseball, or a tennis ball too, if you don't make the stitch marks. But we're going to make this a basketball, so we're going to need to add two more lines. And these lines show the three dimensional aspect of the ball. Just remember those last two, like that, and there you have it, you have a basketball. Now the basketball net, have to have something to throw it in. Give me an oval, make it a double oval. For the net, kind of make it curve out like that, and then make little swirls there, make the swirls come the opposite way down here. Actually you can turn these swirls into whole ovals, like that. And then the rest of the net coming down like that. There's your basketball net, make two or three connector peices and then your backboard. Now I'm doing it 3D, its a little bit sloppy, but you get the idea. There's that square that you see in the middle sometimes. And you can have your base come down like that, make your base look anyway you want. Look at a real base and find out how to make it look really cool. Here's your basketball flying up into the net.
