Time needed: 20 minutes

How to Draw Earth

Draw the outline of the Earth globe.
Begin by drawing a large, perfectly round circle, ensuring the edges are smooth and uniform to draw the base of your Earth drawing. Use a steady hand or a drawing compass for accuracy.
Depict North America on a globe.
Carefully trace the contour of the continent located in the upper left section of your circle to create the Earth’s landmass. Follow the natural curves to mimic the coastline accurately.
Add the South America.
Position your pencil below the outlined North American continent on the Earth, and begin to draw the distinctive, jagged outline of the South America, ensuring it’s proportionate to the previous shape.
Sketch the Eurasia on the Earth.
Shift your focus to the upper right quadrant of a planet, and meticulously draw the irregular edges of the Eurasian continent, connecting it naturally to the previously drawn parts.
Depict the Africa and Australia.
Now, place your pencil below the sketched Eurasia, and begin to carefully draw the outline of the Africa and Australia, ensuring to capture its unique shape on a globe.
Check that the lines are drawn correctly.
Pause for a moment and review your work meticulously, ensuring that each line of the continents is accurately placed and reflects the true contours of their geographical shapes on the globe.
Color the Earth drawing.
Select a vibrant shade of blue for the oceans and a rich green for the continents, and proceed to fill in your drawing, carefully staying within the outlines to bring your Earth drawing to life.

How to Draw the World

This method for drawing Earth presents a slightly different perspective, focusing on a more angled view of the planet. While there are no drastic differences in the overall technique or the final image, the variation in angle offers a fresh way to practice and refine your drawing skills.

Additionally, this method of drawing Earth introduces a new approach to constructing the perfect circle, starting with a cross to define the proportions, which lays the foundation for the sphere. This slight change in the initial steps provides a clear perspective, extending this tutorial by one additional step.
