Urban Architectural Sketching with Ink

“Thank you so much for taking part in this course and I hope you've enjoyed it. It's now time to work on your project. This could mean finishing the drawing you started by completing the course tasks or making a brand-new project! Either way, I strongly suggest you take the time to gather inspiration and make a unique project of your own. Make sure to keep track of your progress with different pictures of each step. It'd be great if you could also explain the choices you've made along the way and tell us if you have any doubts. This will help me guide you better if you need advice. Here are the main steps to follow: The Reference Image Select a scene that features a two-point perspective. Review your chosen image and identity the vanishing points, horizon line, ground plane, vertical planes, light and shadow direction, entourage elements, and overall composition. The Penciled Outline Using the scene that you've selected, identify and draw the main elements in pencil.

The Inked Sketch Using ink, draw the main lines of the building. Capture all the key edges and forms, leaving gaps in areas you plan to add entourage elements. The Shading Identify where the sun in your scene comes from. According to the specific lighting conditions, illustrate the light and shadow that is present in your scene. The Final Touches Bring all the elements of your drawing together by adding detailing and entourage. Are there any last adjustments you'd like to make to improve the final result? It's good to adopt a critical eye. Self-evaluation is key to improving your process. And that's all! I can't wait to see what you've come up with. You can share your work with us so by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result and the steps that have led you to them. It would be great if you showed a picture of each step and added a brief explanation about what you have done in each one. I will be more than happy to answer any of the questions you might have along the way! I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. In the meantime, participate in the forum, comment on others' work, and interact with the community. See you there! ”
