You can move the grey grid square around to help you do views. On the main entry page, go to “Building with 3 Sides” and then choose the figures to do (there are 10 puzzles). This is a fun game with a timer to count how many cubes are in each random isometric shape. There is also a ready made lesson about drawing the top view mat for Isometric shapes at the following link: Included are full instructions and a lesson on using this Isometric Cubes Drawing Tool at the following link: It can be accessed at the following link: It even has a 3D Rotatable Viewer which can be opened in a new window once you have placed a few blocks onto the grid. The above online tool is great for drawing Isometric cubes. The links below are to worksheets we found on the Internet for Isometric Drawing. The following video shows how to make an Isometric Cubes Drawing when provided with a Front View, a Side View, and a Top View. This next short video shows how to make Isometric Alphabet Letters. Here is a nice short video which introduces the concept of Isometric Drawing. This type of drawing is also called “Orthographic Projection”. Once we have the Grid Paper we can draw and colour in cubes like those shown above. If you want some lined grids then click the following link: Making these 3D drawings involves using Isometric Dot Grid Paper, which can easily be obtained from Google Images. In this lesson we take a quick look at drawing Isometric Cubes, as well as looking at some great online tools for working with 3D using cubes.

Isometric drawing with cubes is often covered as part of Geometry topics in Mathematics. Isometric Cubes can be used to create a variety of 3D shapes, and are a great tool for learning how to visulaise in 3D. Go to the following link to see this artwork running, and changing colour in Flash on your computer. This tutorial was made for beginner Inkscape users and graphic designers.The above picture is a brilliant piece of computer art by Adobe Flash Programmer Ben Swift. Inkscape is a free Scalable Vector Graphics program most similar to Adobe Illustrator.

Though that sounds complicated, this technique is actually really easy and the final result is truly amazing! You’ll learn how to easily create this illustration using a combination of easy-to-draw shapes, the Transformation feature, and the rectangular and axonometric grids. In this Inkscape tutorial, I show you how to design a 3D isometric vector phone design.
