Drew my wacom pen holder. I want to try the airplane.

I drew a bottom, top, front, and side view of my cauldron mug — except I left the felt pads out (appalling, I know! But I don’t want the wood to get scratched…) Maybe nobody would’ve noticed. Anyway, it’s freehand so the circles are a bit wonky and I’m not too pleased with how the legs turned out in the bottom view. The 3/4 view is not really accurate but I didn’t use the photo as reference, that’s just to submit here.

Wooden Toy Boat Ortho after simplifying the reference :)

For the last assignment I chose a very simple box, so this time I chose a conch. It was interesting doing orthographic drawings of such an organic and complex form.

Here's my attempt with my soap dispenser at home (late submission, but better than never, I guess ^^')

This is an iPad stand I use on my desk. This is the kind of exercise that makes my teeth itch but I can definitely see the value in it!

So I decided to give this assignment another shot with a slightly more complex object, and man oh man I am really struggling this time around. I'm struggling heaps with figuring out how far out certain parts of the cat come out in different views. for example, using the front view I can get a good feel for the general silhouette of the object, and with the side view I feel like I can get most of the depth pretty accurately. but then I struggle so much figuring out which part along the objects width are deep vs shallow in the top and bottom views. if anyone has any advice for how I could improve please let me know, I'm stuck in struggle city and its peak hour.

Hi! I was traveling for a month, so I'm just now catching up on the assignments and trying to get my hand back in shape.

I had a lot of fun with this one, I'd love to come back and do more some time!

Playing with some materials, I decided I wanted to try watercolor. I just got a bunch of this new paper and needed an excuse to practice on it. Drawing an object over and over from different view points gave me a brand new understanding of 3d form. I think I get it a little bit more after this. I can see the X, Y, and Z axis a little more clearly. Thanks for the awesome perspective course!

if I did anything wrong I would appreciate any feedback! I feel as I understood the assignment, The front view (X, Y), side view (Z, Y) and top and bottom view (Z, X). The camera is longer but I end up making the X- axis more small. In the second attempt I tried to have more of better proportions but ended up making similar mistakes. I purposely simplified my camera so it can be easier to draw from memory, so I don’t have to deal with the small details. I sketched a few 3 quarter view away from home to integrate the image in my mind ✍️

I've been using this technique to draw other things like horses and flowers; it's so so useful! :DD Very technical, very conscious observation. Love it!

I've done these before, so I picked a crow skull as a challenge. To challenge myself a little further I drew the 3D view without looking at my skull, only the orthos and memory. It was a great exercise because it found what my orthos could not (looking down into the eye socket for example)

I know, I am too late. I wanted to upload anyways. I did the Proko Skull in Ortho. I got it as a present for christmas :)

I'm still playing catch-up. I attempted this once before during the blob method (you can see my free handed attempt reattached as well as my newer ruled attempt.) I pondered using a simpler object but stuck to my guns and drew the Jimny again. Every time I guessed a measurement I worried about the thoughts of my progeny.

I didn't expect to have that much fun with the assignment. Planning where things will land feels like viewing the matrix or a superpower. I still had to guess some curved parts and the spring freehand; I lacked the technical knowledge to figure it out with the tools. I feel excited for the second part of the course, where we will learn more techniques to see the matrix fully. Hope I don't miss the deadline then. Edit: Seeing my drawing, I wonder if there is a way to move the measure of depth from the top to the side view. Maybe with a compass?
