The quick sketch technique

Above about the quick sketch technique.

When drawing, a basic understanding of the rules of perspective is essential if you are to achieve a realistic effect. Only once you have learned these rules you can begin to distort or exaggerate them in order to accentuate elements of your design. There are three basic forms of perspective (one, two and three point). There are also three main elements present in each of these (the vanishing point, convergence lines and horizon line). This tutorial shows the basics behind one and two point perspective only, three-point perspective being a technique that automotive sketching does not require.
Horizon Line: This line, as its name suggests, describes the horizon, which is always considered to be at eye level. For instance, an object sited above the horizon line is above the viewer's eye level and will therefore show its underside.
Vanishing Points: Sited on the horizon line these are the points where all convergence lines meet. Although always on the horizon, their position on the horizon depends on the viewer's angle to the viewed object.
Convergence Lines: All parallel lines in a scene will always appear to converge to a single point (the vanishing points). The exception to this rule is that lines viewed in parallel or perpendicular to the viewer will not converge. In one and two point perspective you can also consider all vertical lines as non-converging lines.
One Point Perspective: One point perspective is evident when the object being viewed lies parallel or perpendicular to the viewer. This means that only lines travelling towards or away from the viewer appear to converge to a single vanishing point on the horizon. Picture one shows how this makes for a very simple version of perspective, which is especially useful for sketching quick side views of a vehicle.
Two Point Perspective: When the object being viewed lies at an angle to the viewer, as in the second sketch example, all the horizontal lines appear to converge. This therefore introduces a second vanishing point on the horizon. Where the vanishing points fall on the horizon line depends on the angle of the object to the viewer. Looking at picture two you can see that if the vehicle were turned so that more of the side was visible, then the right vanishing point would move to the right and out of the image.
Wheel Ellipses: Getting correct ellipses when drawing a car is probably the hardest part of perspective. Getting it absolutely correct will probably not add anything to your drawing, but getting it wrong however will make your drawing look very odd. If you look at a circle at an angle of 90 degrees then what you see is indeed a circle. Once you start to reduce the angle you view the circle from, it starts to appear to be an ellipse. An ellipse has a Major Axis and a Minor Axis. In picture three you can see where these are situated on an ellipse. The Major Axis divides the ellipse into two equal halves along the longest dimension, whilst the Minor Axis divides the ellipse into two equal halves along its shortest dimension. Although not technically complete (the full explanation is long, more complicated and not generally required when sketching) a good rule of thumb is that you should always align the Minor Axis with the axle of your vehicle. The Major Axis, and therefore the longest dimension of the ellipses should therefore run perpendicular to your axle line. Finally, how do you ensure that the angle of your ellipse is correct? There is a method using construction boxes, but in practice you should not need this for sketching. If you ensure that you have got all of the above correct then the angle, or width of your ellipse hopefully should be self-evident.

About quick sketching

Here's about quick sketching.

Here is a dump of his live tweets during this excellent workshop at UX London. If you like it, you should buy their book when it comes out later this year.

• wondering about the easiest way to export my tweets from yesterday and get them into chronological order
• sketching workshop kicking off, hooray! ‘and we’re going to get kind of sweaty’
• ‘how many of you guys are IxDs? And how many are UX Designers?’ Cue chaos
• showing people your sucky drawings is part of the growing process
• squeak squeak squeak, explain explain, squeak squeak (how many of you use a whiteboard?)
• why are we here (in this sketching workshop)? to become better communicators
• design drawing is useful in the planning process, can help to see the world differently, heightened awareness of how things work
• drawing can help you tell your story to others, its honesty can be v compelling
• why draw by hand when we have computers? Mice suck.
• why draw by hand - direct with the pencil is more direct, more expressive than via mouse
• thinking is a fast paced activity, the pencil is simple & immediate, a good, fast tool for capturing thought
• ‘Pencils Before Pixels’ - Mark Baskinger
• we’re going to start off with really simple things like straight lines …
• ‘i’d love to sit down and draw cubes with you after the workshop’
• we’re grabbing pencils and paper…
• starting with pencil holding technique. @ashdonaldson & @cennydd are getting some remedial tips
• if you can’t see the tip of your pencil you can’t draw. You need a v loose grip to avoid fatigue
• your bellybutton is very important for vertical lines. It’s like a visual landmark. Pull the lines toward it #uxlondon (seriously!)
• (feels like sketch pilates)
• @keeran of course I’m participating! my vertical lines are much better than my horizontal!
• correct each others squares. what do you see? either ‘my squares suck’ or ‘the person next to me is blind’
• you have to warm up before you can sketch properly.
• techniques for better hand drawn wireframes: use non-repro blue for underlay drawing (it disappears when copied)
• carry a sketchbook all the time. practice sketching all the time. practice straight lines, squares, using hatching for tone
• ‘it’s all about pulling some lines’
• use lines in various intervals, not scribble, for adding tone.
• being purposefully rough, like overlapping corners, makes sketching look more sketchy
• sketchiness = this is not a finished idea, I’m still thinking about this. Sketching holds the conversation back to the big picture
• avoid crosshatching in wireframes, starts to ‘pop’ too much. Use various weight of diagonal or vertical lines instead
• build your sketches up sequentially, add weight and tone onto the skeleton
• uh oh. perspective! (moving shapes in space)
• perspective - make sure your back vertical is a little shorter than your front vertical
• try to finish your line with the same weight as you start it
• if you can do curved planes, you can do arrows. (v pretty arrows, that is)
• @alexjamesmorris you might think all UX people draw, but unfortunately not true, and many of us would love to draw better!
• move the point of your arrow back just a tiny bit off centre and it will look better
• i can recommend Trio Scribli pens #uxlondon (via @solle)
• ‘these are all ‘ungood’ ways of drawing a circle’
• the only useful thing your pinky does is stablise your hand when you want to ‘drop in’ a pencil
• the trick to drawing a good circle is to do a few practice circles before you ‘drop in’ your circle (it works!)
• @freecloud agree that blog posts are like word sketches, but there’s nothing like drawn sketches to communicate some ideas
• @alexjamesmorris i agree. you can’t copy and paste sketched wireframes. I think that’s incredibly important.
• I’m realising that my biggest problem with sketching before is not visualising what I am trying to sketch before starting to draw
• realising sketching is a lot more deliberate than I thought. Resolving to *really* do the sketchbook thing from now on
• ’sketching becomes a magic trick. I can draw this and you can’t. That’s a powerful thing’
• @alexjamesmorris absolutely - pencil before pixels as Mark said at the beginning
• ok. drawing people. If I can leave this workshop with people drawing skills I will be stoked.
• if you have an element in your sketch that is weak or less deliberate, it attracts attention & detracts from your entire sketch.
• notational sketching = the act of recording things that you see in the world. Mostly for your sketchbook, less so for sharing
• analysing visual input (what you see) and deciding what to record is a particular kind of drawing skill
