How to make an Isometric Projection from Orthographic Projection

To convert orthographic projection into isometric projection is still become a big job especially for a beginner. It is need more practices. We show an example below how to make isometric projection form orthographic projection.

Orthographic Projection















1st step:
To draw a rectangular prims shape with a proportional length, width and height. a front view is determined by yourself. In this example, a front view is shown by an arrow line.















2nd step:
Continuous lines (object line) on a front view of orthographic projection is re-drawn on isometric projection.















3rd step:
Continuous lines (object line) on a top view of orthographic projection is re-drawn on isometric projection.
















4th step:

Other continuous lines on the front and top view is completed















5th step:

Hidden lines on the right view is drawn






























A hollow part below the object is represented by continuous line B and line C. Continuous line C has a role as the end of hollow part. After whole lines is completed, the final object is shown below:
