Isometric Drawing Exercise

This document demonstrates how to draw isometric objects using the box method in 9 steps: 1) Draw a box around the object, 2) Draw a proportional box on paper, 3) Draw the front-facing surface on the box, 4) Draw the top-facing surface on the box, 5) Draw the right-facing surface on the box, 6) Complete the box by drawing the "third lines", 7) Print the exercise and draw 9 objects using the box method and dividing the paper into quadrants.

Isometric Drawing Exercise


The following presentation will demonstrate how to draw isometric objects using the box method.

Isometric Drawing Exercise


When drafting objects freehand, care must be taken to draw accurately and neatly. Therefore, all lines should be drawn as a single linedo not shade any line.

Shaded line

Isometric Drawing Exercise


You will use two different lines to sketch objects: Construction lines are light lines sketched in as you initially draw the object. Drawing lines are dark lines which may be used for the initial drawing or which may be created by neatly darkening a construction line.

Isometric Drawing Exercise


To draw an isometric object using the box method, perform the following steps:
Step 1: Draw a box around the object you wish to draw.

Step 2: Draw a box on your paper, in the same proportions as the box you drew on the object, 1 to 2 times larger than the original box.

Step 3: Look at the front side of the object. Which surface touches the outside of the box?

Step 4: Draw the surface on your box using drawing lines.

Step 5: Look at the top of the object. Which surface touches the outside of the box?

Step 6: Draw the surface on your box using drawing lines.

Step 7: Look at the right hand side of the object. Which surface touches the outside of the box?

Step 8: Draw the surface on your box using drawing lines.

Step 9: Complete the box by drawing in the third lines. You may wish to draw construction lines then neatly cover the construction lines with drawing lines.

To complete the Isometric Drawing Exercise, return to the Sketching and Freehand Drawing Fundamentals page, open up the Isometric Drawing Exercise page and print a copy of the exercise. Your task will be to draw nine isometric objects freehand, using the box method as demonstrated in this presentation.

To complete the exercise, you may divide a piece of plain white paper (8 x 11) into four equal quadrants by lightly creasing the paper in half horizontally and also in half vertically. Each object can be sketched into its own quadrant. You will need three pieces of paper to complete the exercise.
