8 Isometric Drawing Exercises Collection

Isometric drawing is a way of 3D representation of an object on 2D surface. It is commonly used in engineering, architecture and related fields. For people who have no background in engineering or architectural, a multi-view drawing can be difficult to understand. Translating a multi-view drawing requires skill and imagination to mentally round out how the image looks. This is where an isometric drawing becomes beneficial. It combines three adjacent views to create an image with depth and volume. In this post we collected 8 isometric drawing exercises that may help to improve your skill. Enjoy them and feel free to leave your thoughts here.
