Quick ortho and intuitive sketch of the plane :D
Jacob Granillo
well done, and you dared to foreshorten 👀

more arrows tipping and turning. felt like drawing a tank in a box too so scribbled on my page a bit more.

I'm late but done. Initially, I tried drawing the plane in box from my orthos but found I needed the reference. Also, I realized I should have gone with the simple airplane rather than the one with more angles.

While drawing this I was in airplane mode. 🥸

I did one airplane based on the orthos from the video. Then since I was inspired by the geometric animals in the video, I wanted to try that with my dog. I think I made the head and torso a little more complicated than I should have, so each were pretty different to map out. I used tracings of them to put them together. I’ll have to keep working on it and fill out the rest of the body and try other poses.

I imagined a clear box floating above my head and place the things I want to draw inside it.

Ooh I like your arrows.

I thought that for this exercise, I would challenge myself by trying out freehand drawing of the airplane in orthographic perspectives. To gain a clearer understanding of the ortho perspectives we have been learning, I searched for a reference photo to help me out. Additionally, as I drew each perspective in this, I decided to incorporate the arrows we had previously used to add a brain-thinking perspective and clarify the concepts. Hopefully, I did a decent job on these; as usual, it was a super fun assignment.

I have no idea why my assignment was submitted four times. I just did it once but it shows four times. sorry for the inconvenience
Stephen Clark
It NEEDED to be seen 🤣 It's no problem.

I drew the model plane from all four angles, focusing more oh orthos and axis. For me figuring out axis was not difficult but to draw the plane in foreshortened view was very challenging,. I left those for future assignment when I have more understanding of how to draw them accurately in proportion

Too rough , I apologized

It looks so easy. Still, it took me some time to figure out how to place the back wing. I definitely need to practice this more often
Marc Martí
I was amazed by this exercise. I thought drawing the plane would be almost impossible, but after doing the orthos, everything became so clear. There are still some areas and perspective navigation tricks to learn, but I'm happy with the results. I'm really excited for the next lessons!

A few planes I did earlier . Going to do a bunch of arrows next
Marc Martí
This looks so clean!

i love that I can learn so much from the orthographic views. This even completes my perspective understanding and let’s me fly freely and without being scared, I also added my latest digital painting that I used every method Marshal taught us by now and I am pretty satisfied with the way it looks it took +70 hours and I mostly used the blob approach, the cube method, one point perspective and what we learned in melted pancakes I even did it on several stages like thumbnails and samples. I love where we are heading and excited to see what is coming next.

Shayan - you rock

I dared to foreshortening, but I'm ashamed to say I didn't dared enough. Also I don't think I was in the right mindset while doing this. I was thinking more of having this done today to be critique than actually putting conscious effort into applying the lessons here. Also probably switching to the ruler halfway wasn't the best idea, since it change the objective from trying to understand space to precision. Would you guys agreed? Think maybe I should try with the blob approach for a while or keep trying to rough it out right away even with my poor straight line quality? Or a combination of both? What should I been thinking while doing these?

The front view looks really cool!

I decided to go a bit ambitious and try a real object which is reasonably irregular in shape and form, a replica of the third finger bones of a Utahraptor, from the Smithsonian. It looks a bit messy, especially in the bottom view. Holding it in the orthogonal positions proved to be a bit tedious. I'm certain I've made a mess of the oblique view as well.
Maria Bygrove
I really like your drawing, you did orthos but with some shading and that gives the bones the dimensions that are usually lost in the straight-on view. Fineliner?
@rupertdddd
Not sure how to accurately scale each side of the box when I put on the ortho sides...

Awesome work!
Maria Bygrove
OOOh, and something just clicked for me when looking at your assignment. I was admiring how well proportioned your plane looks in the 3/4 view (something I struggled with a lot) and then I noticed the orthos lightly sketched on all the sides of the box - duh! Brilliant work :)
