A cartoon illustration of an astronaut standing on a small cube world. The astronaut has one head behind is helmet, scratching his head. The other hand is holding a map with a round planet on it, colored similarly to the world he is standing on. The world is about twice as big as he is, and has blue water, green land masses, and an ice cap at the bottom. The astronaut's ship can be see parked on the side of the world. There is a cube moon in the upper right corner, and in the background is outer space. The astronaut's uniform is a creamy white color. The ship is the same color but with a dark nose. The moon is also the same light color. All of the objects have a purple shadow on the right. The background is a dark indigo with stars dotted across it.

Today's June Toons cartoon features a lone astronaut... lost in space!

I took a break from my usual Procreate brushes to try a more uniform pen for this one. I think the result is fine, but it's harder to hide micro-movements with this brush for some reason. 😅

Anyway, this was created in Procreate with an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, using the Procreate Pencil brush for sketching, the Studio Pen brush for linework, and Soft air brush for shading.

If you'd like to see how I drew this one, you can watch the time-lapse below:
