Watched this one. The guy is a really good artist. He goes through things very fast but I think I got a couple of tips that will be very useful, just need to have time to try them. This was part 2 so I think I need to go look at part 1 as well. :^: :clap:

I will look at the others when I get some more time.

Currently exploring Sketchbook since I cam use it on both iPad and Windows. Currently just looking at the iPad version. It is free on both devices.

Hope I can create something soon. :D

Not going well for me. I have a couple of ideas in mind but so far am not doing well with them. In particular, I am having problems drawing the in 2D with perspective. I have problems in designing anything other than the front of the building.

Majid, if you read this, does your book address things like this? Is it available in a format other than for a Kindle or is there any plan for that? I have an iPad and a Windows laptop.

OK - some progress (although bad) using Sketchbook on my iPad but at least it is a start.

OK, I know this has nothing to do with the alphabet (which is what triggered this) but the image below is a practice image generated with Sketchbook on my iPad. Right now I am concentrating on learning on how to sketch things so I can use Majid’s theme oh Alphabet Inspired Sketches. In order to do that I must first learn to use the tools.

This images has a lot of errors but at least it is a start. It is based on a tutorial about using the perspective feature in Sketchbook on the iPad,

Again, not great but it is a start.

Wow,
This shows great progress. :rspkt: :rspkt: :rspkt:
I may ask you to consider the horizon somehow a bit upward. The vanishing points must meet on horizon line.

Thanks Majid :v:

Actually I did not draw the building from the vanishing point. I drew it below it. Again, part of the learning process. Just before closing the app down, I learned a couple more tricks that I think will be very helpful in future sketches. :v:

Now I need to learn how to share files between my iPad and laptop. I am starting to like the Sketchbook software. :D

What matters is ease of use so that let your creativity be unleashed.

Yes, still a way go but I feel like I am moving forward. Learning more things about the software with each “sketch” (and enjoying it BTW).
