Video Tutorial: Simple Cutaway View


Sketches can be very effective communication tools. Take the cutaway view. Without it, I would have no idea that the inside of these spheres is green goo. :-)

A cutaway view of an object is one that shows the outer as well as inner features of a given design. The easy way to do one is to have something handy to use as reference or a 3-d object to use as an underlay. However, when neither of these things are available, you may want to do a rougher underlay and then overlay that rougher sketch.

Before following along with this one, you may want to look at some of our earlier videos on basic perspective and sketch techniques as well as have an object handy near by. You can watch the video in Full HD on Vimeo if you’re interested as well.
