Isometric Sketching



Creation comes in everything. We would not have the technological advances and acquirements we have today if humans were not given the gift of "creation". In the life of an engineer, he/she is all about creation. Many use computers or different assets to promote their creation before becoming a final product. Although, in its absence, every prototype/product has to pass evaluation on the drawing board after an idea is proposed, and just before it can be transfered to a refine computer program. By using grid sketching paper, students were found to scale a drawing and sketch it to the applied dimensions (yellow). Students also used sketching to portray various pictures on the grid to further expand their knowledge on the sketching and constraints of an object using simulated, Inventor(computer program) isometric images. It was an important task to also use tonal shading of the objects giving a sense of the object's angle/position or at which direction could sunlight be approaching from (white).
