Sketching classroom fishing boat assignment, Tainan recently photographed the scenic spot cargo ships will soon be demolished, and then there is no opportunity to shoot feel pity, drawing a search for a fun.
This time, we will introduce how to construct the external structure of a boat through simple geometric shapes, and understand how to draw a boat together!

The following two pictures are classroom demonstrations.

Recognizing the basic structure of a boat.

The base structure of the boat is in the form of a rib, consisting of a series of longitudinal and transverse beams that support the shape and stability of the boat.

● Ribs:

These arches are located on the sides of the boat to maintain the shape of the hull and provide additional strength.

Dragon Bone:

Located in the center of the bottom of the boat, this is the main supporting structure of the boat and ensures the stability of the boat in a straight line.

How to draw a fishing boat:

We started with a basic rectangle, then gradually worked out the shape through the structural perspective lines, and finally completed the perspective effect of the boat structure.

Perspective can help us better understand the three-dimensionality of objects and the layout of shapes in space.

● Overall base shape

The main body of the boat can be reduced to a base shape to help determine the overall proportions of the boat, starting with a similar rectangular shape. The bottom side view sets the hull at 2 squares and the height at 1.7 squares.

● Drawing out the curvature of the ship's hull

We simplified the side of the boat into three angular surfaces to help draw the curves, which on the one hand reduces the difficulty of drawing the curves, and on the other hand allows us to find out the position of the unseen counterparts of the structure.

Application of structured lines

The use of structural lines can help to draw accurate positions relative to the freehand, such as the symmetry of the hull, the relative position of the decks, specifically refer to the large left diagram, the lower right corner of the small diagrams

I hope that this introduction will help you to recognize and understand the knowledge points of the boat, if there are any subjects you want to see or drawing methods, please feel free to leave a message or private message me!Instagram Exchanges.
