Unit 3: Isometric Sketching
Duration of Days: 12
The difference between isometric (30-degree angles) and perspective drawing, and how to represent depth on a flat surface without a computer.
Practice sketching on isometric grid paper, converting orthographic drawings back into 3D isometrics, and maintaining proportion.
A "Technical Sketchbook" portfolio showing a progression from simple blocks to complex shapes with circular features (ellipses).
