• Objective: Identify box shapes on Isometric graph paper and draw a simple 3d box.

• Vocab: Isometric-Of, or being a geometric system of three equal axes lying at right angles to each other.

• Assessment: (“Tomorrow’s Quiz”)- “Draw the object on the screen EXACTLY as it is drawn.”

Isometric Sketches

Approx. 30 degreesApprox. 30

degrees

Isometric views portray objects in a true 3d perspective.

Can you see the pair of shoes in the cubby hole?

All lines must be drawn in 1 of 3 directions.

Look at this for a minute.

Do you see triangles or 3d boxes?

Can you see the flat surfaces on this sketch?

6

Tonal Shading

Decide where the light source is coming from, and add tonal shading to two of the three views with parallel lines drawn closely together. Increase the contrast by cross-hatching the lines on the darkest face.
