4. Your turn: Should end looking like bottom left picture.
Draw these shapes
Draw orthogonals from all edges and corners (scoot the ruler from the VP until it hits the edge of any rounded shape.
Line the ruler up with the vertical, horizontal, and diagonal lines and. Scoot it out to draw parallels between the apropriate orthogonals. For curves, carefully draw parallel curved lines between the appropriate orthogonals
Erase all extra lines (Recommended you do this as you go– extra lines get confusing, fast)

Accuracy Matters:
CREATING 3D OBJECTS
Please make sure to always use a ruler. Connect the corners of the front object shapes to the vanishing point, while using guidelines to make sure object legs and depths are even and where they should be. Than, cut out the objects using parallel lines. .
