It looks like you are drawing from imagination, which is a good exercise. But I recommend you to grab hold of an actual product and try to sketch it from different angles. Like a flashlight, a digital camera, a purse, etc. This way you can actually gauge through comparison, if your drawings look right or wrong.

thanks for your advice, sketchroll. I’ll do more practice using the actual product.

When you sketch are you doing any overlays?

no, I didn’t. sometimes I use Photoshop to erase all the messy lines

You may want to try overlaying your sketches. It is a helpful way to build the design over a series of iterative steps. That way you don’t have to nail it in on try. Let it build, step back, put a clean sheet over top, keep what is working and fix what is broken.

thanks, that’s a good idea, that would help me to get some clean and nice drawing. by the way , Uni application portfolio this is my uni application portfolio, please give me some advices! Thank you so much!

dont know if this was mentioned before, but try drawing through, don’t be so cautious with your lines and trying to draw it completely accurately. Not sure what you are going for but its fine if you dont draw a line all the way from point A to B. If it visually allows the viewer to see the shape, then you’re good!

uni starts soon , school ask me to buy copic marker, black, w-grey3,w-grey6. I don’t if there any other colours that I should buy? please give me some suggestions. thanks

I most of the time use T2 an T4 and 100 Black copics, but sometimes use C2, C4, C6 instead of the Toner greys. I use these copics because they were recommend by my school. I like to use the Toner greys and go over them with a coloured copic marker to make a coloured object or just leave it without colour.
If I were you I would just stick to the recommendations, but maybe buy a W2 and W4 instead of a W3. In the end you can always buy new ones and add them to your collection of markers :slight_smile:

uni started! It’s now the third week! So much work!

ok… first year of uni just finished. I’m starting practising drawing cars during the break
