Lines 1
Motion it out. Practice makes perfect.
2
Commit to one stroke No hairy things!
3
Double hit if you can.
4
Contrast and clarity
Perspective 1
Plan it out.
Set up simple geometry to compose complex geometry.
2
Draw through.
Don’t think you’re too good to draw through. It will never hurt.
3
Convergence/divergence! Be a stickler. One off line could ruin it.
4
Watch the horizon. Make sure your geometry is in the correct position.
5
Watch exaggeration. Use it when scale calls for it, or an emotive drawing.
Value 1
Hatch consistently.
Make sure the lines correspond to the plane they are on, too.
2
Practice! Takes time.
3
Contrast!
MOAR where you want viewer to look.
