Overview

As the final project, create a drawing of one of your maquettes. Don't just copy the reference photo of your maquette – rather, bring it alive by applying everything you've learned in the course. If you need more information than your maquette provides, either develop the maquette further or look for reference in nature or online. Enjoy!

Materials

• Digital or traditional media. Use the medium you are most comfortable with. 
• Your physical or digital maquette.

Example

Steps 

For traditional media:

1. Select a photograph or render of your maquette and print it out.
2. Create a drawing based on your maquette.
3. Upload an image showing a photo of the maquette next to your drawing.

For digital media:

1. Select a photograph or render of your maquette and place it on your canvas as reference.
2. Create a drawing based on your maquette.
3. Upload an image showing a photo of the maquette next to your drawing.

Meet these Challenges

• Make sure you include all modeling factors.
• Make sure you don't commit any of the common shading mistakes.
• Use the maquette as a reference for the shading but push the realism of your drawing as much as possible to really bring your image to life.

Duration

This project should take 1–3 hours to complete.
