    • Print one this, or something like this
    • Get a scale/ruler, a pencil and an eraser
    • Use the above to draw, first a this and then a this
    • Then imagine and draw stuff like this

    The last one is not true isometric, but has a perspective. But you can make similar good looking stuff in isometric too.
    To do perspective, you can’t use the Printed isometric line/dot paper.
    Instead, it has an additional step of choosing the infinity points and making your own lines for it.


    I tried to find a good instructions page, but unfortunately, search engines just prefer YouTube videos (which I don’t like to recommend).

    Either way, this is one method that lets you git gud pretty fast, albeit in a different drawing form.


    Another thing: The last example picture I showed, has circles and semi circles. Avoid those in your drawing at this stage. That requires you to learn an extra method.



  • What is an si (I presume session id)?

    And where do look, if there is a standard for these thingies?

    I understand that these are query strings, but who decides which keys are there and what they mean? And if they depend completely on the server’s implementation, then how do you know what the “si” key means, except from experience?

    Thanks in advance.
