How to Use These Worksheets
- Foundation: Start by drawing the basic 2D letter 'B' outline on the grid. This establishes the form and ensures correct proportions. Add the interior details and the "bite" that helps define the illusion's edge.
- Adding Depth: Introduce the isometric perspective lines. This is the crucial step where the illusion of depth is created by drawing diagonal lines extending from each corner, transforming the flat shape into a 3D block.
Shading and Finalizing: The final step involves shading the side planes. Shading (using light and dark tones) is what truly tricks the eye, making the depth appear realistic and completing the jaw-dropping optical illusion.
