EXERCISES

week2 Deconstruct and Reconstruct 

In this exercise, we need to select three types (air, land and water) of a theme for drawing, and test and practice the basic knowledge of 3D drawing through simple combinations of shapes, decomposition and perspective. I choose to practice from three aspects. 

First, among the land vehicles, I chose the tank. I originally operated it on the computer using the drawing board, but I didn't think the drawing was very good. So I completed the remaining deconstruction work by drawing with a pencil.

Fig2.1 Land vehicles (Deconstruction of tanks)

For the flying vehicle, I choose a kind of space shuttle, which is mainly composed of cuboids.Unlike the deconstruction method of tanks, for this picture, I adopted the approach of dividing it into small parts to understand and draw its structure and perspective.

For underwater vehicles, I chose the hovercraft, which is mainly composed of cuboids and cylinders.This time, I choose to deconstruct the hovercraft from different perspectives.

week 3 - How to get different forms

This week, Mr. Kannan guided us on how to extract the contours and shapes of existing vehicles and make modifications on this basis to create brand-new contour designs.

I chose land vehicles, which are divided into three types: tanks, four-wheelers and trucks.

week7 Perspective & Line Weights

Continuing the deconstruction and reconstruction exercises, Mr. Kannan guided us to choose a type and apply the color. I chose the SUV because, in my project 1, I was drawing a land vehicle.I drew another five perspectives to explore different angles and perspectives.

I chose the second perspective for further development. I redrew the perspective with different line thicknesses to enhance the depth and clarity of the drawing.
