Cube, isometric sketching

Step Six Complete the isometric cube by sketching the top, back edges parallel to edges you sketched in step five... 

Sketching an Isometric Cube An easy way to learn to sketch in isometric is to learn to sketch a cube in isometric. Remember, a cube is a three-dimensional shape that has squares on all its faces. Figure 5-8 illustrates the steps you should take to sketch the three-unit cube (3 X 3 X 3). In Chapter 4, you learned about the geometric term parallel. Now is the time to put this term to work. When you sketch, make sure all opposite edges are parallel. 

The sketched isometric cube is formed by three isometric square planes. 

Using correct freehand technical sketching techniques, practice sketching isometric cubes. See Figure 5-29 for a practice example. 

Directions 1. Using a practice sheet from your teacher, sketch isometric cubes by re-drawing the cube shown in this example at the pre-marked locations.
