Presentation Drawings

This is something I never expected. Blueprint,  a technical drawing that acts as a plan or model.  It documents an engineering or architecture design. Examples of blueprint: I need to draw the blueprints of 'THE HEXA' that I had done in the previous project! It is a very tough job as the design is quite complicated. Gotta pull up my socks to finish the project in time. Plan, front, rear, left and right view Two point perspectives to draw out 'The Hexa' with a human figure to indicate the scale                 Axonometric Drawing- isometric which is in 30 degree elevation Colour with Alpha Water Colors PS: I made mistakes in the drawing: the furniture should have some thickness to indicate its volume.  It is learning process anyway.

The design is called 'THE HEXA'.                                                                                         ...
