What are sketches? These are preliminary drawings representing the ideas of future designs, works of art, mechanisms or any of their details.
Detail sketch
This is her sketchy image, very similar to the drawing: it also includes all the information necessary for its production and control.
The sketch contains drawings, technical standards, length, width, material and other information are indicated. It is necessary to create a sketch based on the norms and rules of standards. It is very important. Children draw sketches at school at a drawing lesson: the teacher puts a detail in front of them, and they transfer its image to paper. This item requires a cell notebook.
How to sketch parts?
The sketch is performed as follows:
- First you need to familiarize yourself with the part, analyze its shape, determine which geometric shapes it is made up of, in other words, divide it into simple surfaces in your mind. For some, the first point seems complicated, although this is only the beginning. It is not enough to know what a sketch of a part is, you still need to be able to create it.
- Next, you need to establish its name, the intended functions and the raw materials from which it is produced (steel, bronze, cast iron, plastic, etc.).
- Now you need to think about what will be the main sketch of the part, which includes thorough information about its shape.
- Then you should think about how many drawings will be needed (types, sections, external parts and sections). It is better if there are few of them. But looking at them, any person should understand what shape, length, width a part has.
- Now you need to take a piece of paper in the cage of the required size, on which a sketch will be created, draw a frame and provide one line for the title block.
- Then you should carefully look at the part and establish the ratio of its elements. After that, you need to draw all the sketches.
- Next, you need to establish which sizes to write. This is an important stage. Then you need to draw dimensional as well as extension lines. It should be noted that if you know what sketches are in general, then it will be easier for you to do all this.
- Now you need to take a ruler and measure the part.
- At the last stage, you need to add everything you need, make a title block, circle the picture, and also put down the dimensions.
Tattoo sketch
This kind of sketch (also called “flash”) is an image drawn on cardboard, sheet or other surface, which is planned to be transferred to the skin.
The master does not have to be a specialist in painting, but he needs to have an idea of the basic rules for performing a sketch for a tattoo. He must know this without fail. It should be noted that not all artists can become tattooists. Even if they know what sketches are, the process of creating tattoos may not be up to them.
Flash sets, "rehearsal" tattoos
It is very important to be able to correctly position the drawing on the body. Therefore, many artists can not do without flash sets (collections of sketches) of experienced tattooists. It is recommended to work with them first of all for beginners. Only with the acquisition of experience will it be possible to start sketching with one's own hand. At first, you should confine yourself to creating a tattoo. Sketches, in truth, play a secondary role in this matter.
If the tattoo artist has artistic skill and is able to create images on sheets, he will easily repeat the image on the skin. By sketching on paper, a person imagines how he will look on his body. The master literally “rehearses” the tattoo, so it will be easier for him to apply the drawing to the skin.
Clothes sketch
This type of sketch is a schematic drawing of clothes. How to fulfill it?
- At the first stage, draw the main lines that will help you in drawing the silhouette of a person, but remember the proportions. Do it carefully.
- Next, draw the paper into several parts that will correspond to the proportion. Now, in a schematic version, draw the outline of the body: if the figure is male, then the chest and shoulders should be wide and the hips narrow. And if she is female, then everything should be the other way around. Many are aware of what sketches are, but most of them have some difficulties with their creation. But you do not despair.
- In order for the human body to look more believable, draw in the preparatory version the joints in the form of ovals, drawing thin lines between them.
- Now draw the contours of the proposed wardrobe around the body. Next, begin to circle them, while adding the necessary elements and details. It should be clear what kind of thing fit.
- It will be easier for you to create a sketch of clothes if you take pictures and photographs from relevant sources as a visual aid. Focus on these images when drawing. So you will learn how to make sketches of clothing models. In the future, you will perform them quickly and easily.
Now you know a lot about sketches of parts, tattoos and models of clothing. Observing the above rules, you can make a pretty good sketch. Do not be discouraged if the first time you did not succeed - you need to practice a bit.
