Isometric Drawing The following presentation will demonstrate how to draw isometric objects using the “box method”. Use an isometric template sheet to keep your lines straight.
Shaded line • Single line Isometric Drawing When drafting objects freehand, care must be taken to draw accurately and neatly. Therefore, all lines should be drawn as a single line—do not shade any line.
Isometric Drawing 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 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.
Proportional box Original box Isometric Drawing Step 2: Using construction lines, draw a box on your paper, in the same proportions as the box you drew on the object, 1½ to 2 times larger than the original box.
Isometric Drawing 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.
Isometric Drawing 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.
Isometric Drawing 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.
Isometric Drawing Step 9: Complete the box by drawing in the “30 degree receding lines or the vertical connecting lines”. You may wish to draw using construction lines then neatly cover the construction lines with drawing lines.
