How to practice industrial design hand-drawing

Hand-drawing practice:

1. Copy:

Copying good design is the most direct and efficient way to learn, observe the basic features of product modeling, pay attention to the performance of product details. When copying, try to do exactly the same as others, must pay attention to the lines and structure, but also to grasp the perspective and proportion, with independent thinking ability, stand in the perspective of the draughtsman to the composition, to draw, in order to get a rapid improvement. Line, structure, perspective and proportion are the most basic requirements of a hand-drawn picture, and need to focus on.

2. Sketching:

Sketching is tracing the internal and external style of a product from a real object or a photograph. It is the process of reflecting the reality of the image you see on paper through the brain and hand drawing, this process requires a certain basic hand-drawing ability to accurately express the visual picture. At the same time, sketching is also a basic method to test the ability of individual hand-drawing, more to see more drawings is very important to copy as the basis for the practice of sketching.

3. Mimeograph:

It is also a must for a mature industrial designer, and you need to have the ability to mimeograph to study hand-drawing. Mimeograph based on personal memory and understanding of the structure of the object form, this stage requires students to effectively transform the picture in the mind into graphics, have the ability to show the details, only to accumulate enough product material, mimeographing can be easy.

4. coloring:

The purpose of coloring is not to add color to the picture, but to give a sense of volume to the objects in the picture, extra strokes will only make the picture look messy, and will not help the viewer to understand the design itself; the use of color should be uniform, the brushstrokes should be uniform, pay attention to the arrangement and order of the brushstrokes; the picture should not be too grey, and should be a real and imaginary.

5. Hand-drawn practice book:

Product practice manual is different from the art book, need to fully demonstrate the designer's product modeling capabilities and design thinking, good modeling combined with clever design points is a good product manual of the necessary elements. When practicing modeling, focus on the sense of volume, space and aesthetics of the product; when practicing thinking, focus on the functional use of the product, the realizability of production, and the ability to solve problems. Compliance with the above approach, the accumulation of fewer into more, hard practice, twice the result with half the effort!
