During this term we are going to work on perspective. First of all and after watching the video and the presentation to figure out the axonometric projection fundamentals, you´ll be given a handout to desing and draw 3D solids using SketchUp.
You will use three values of the same colour, the way you can find on this achromatic scale.
A good choice could be to pick numbers 3 for the darkest side of the cube, 1 for the lighter part and 5 for the intermediate side. If you have slanted surfaces beware to choose another value according to the position of the light source.
