For the radio, I created a cuboid with dimensions measured in squares rather than in grid triangles. When tackling an object such as a radio, it can help to break it down into primitive objects first. When lighting an isometric shape, consider this isometric lighting rule. By only applying outlines to the edges that would be visible in a 3D space, and hiding the distant square, the same illusion of depth is achieved. Covering the blue square, completes the illusion of depth. Also note that in our 3D space, the red square is nearer to the viewer and the blue square is farther away. Having a single colour can make it hard to visualize the square as three dimensional, so let’s add some shading.Īdding two shades of colour to the extrude gives the illusion of lighting and tricks the brain into thinking it’s seeing a three dimensional object. Although the grid is made up of triangles, consider it as squares rotated in a 3D space. Think 3D!īefore drawing, take a moment to think differently about the grid. The following demonstrations use preset Isometric (1:1). There is also a ‘custom’ option which allows the user to define their own aspect ratio. The presets change the grid aspect ratio as shown above. This tab presents an array of isometric grid presets. Over on the right side of the screen is the ‘ Shape’ tab (Ctrl+6). The document will load with the default ‘Trixel’ grid (circled top left). This uses vector mode and is designed for isometric art. When launching Hexels, start with Trixels template. These tools and grids enable artists to paint lines, shapes, and volumes that all align to the same isometric angle. Hexels provides tools and a set of canvas grids specifically for working on isometric art.

Hexels has simplified the process of creating isometric art by allowing artists to paint on a series of multi-directional grids. Isometric viewpoints have become increasingly popular in video games, illustration, and design. An isometric viewpoint ignores perspective with parallel lines that are of equal distance apart at any point. Objects appear smaller the further away they are and lines tend to converge in the distance. Perspective drawing is a way of presenting a three dimensional look by replicating how our eyes judge depth.

This short guide will help you to ‘think isometric’ and use Hexels’ dedicated iso tools with confidence. Isometric drawing is a great way to present a 2D design in three dimensions.
