How to Doodle a Satellite

Step 1

Let’s break down how to doodle a satellite using simple visual alphabet shapes. Begin your satellite doodle by drawing a square in the middle of your page. Notice how the square is on an angle. It’s also oddly shaped. Certainly not a perfect square.

Step 2

Next, draw two rectangles that will represent the solar cells of our satellite. Connect the solar cells to the body of the satellite using straight lines.

Step 3

Add some details to your solar cells by drawing lines on each of the wings of the satellite. Draw one long line through the middle of each wing, then draw several smaller lines crossing over the long line.

Step 4

Use a combination of straight lines, curved lines, arc shapes and v-shapes to draw your communication antenna. Notice the arc shape waves emanating from the antenna.

Step 5

Finish things off by giving your doodle some color. And there we have it. This is our visual representation of a satellite. How many other ways can you think of to draw a satellite? Could you try drawing it from a different angle?
