What are thumbnails? These are preliminary drawings representing the ideas of future structures, works of art, mechanisms or any of their details.

Part sketch

This is a schematic representation of her, very similar to a drawing: it also includes all the information necessary for its production and control.

The sketch contains drawings, technical standards, length, width, material and other information. It is necessary to create a sketch based on the norms and rules of standards. It is very important. Children draw sketches at school in a drawing lesson: the teacher puts a detail in front of them, and they transfer its image to paper. This item requires a checkered notebook.

How to sketch a part?

The sketch is done as follows:

1. First, you should familiarize yourself with the detail, analyze its shape, determine what geometric shapes it consists of, in other words, mentally divide it into simple surfaces. Some already the first point seems difficult, although this is only the beginning. It is not enough to know what a part sketch is, you also need to be able to create it.
2. Next, you need to set its name, intended functions and raw materials,from which it is made (steel, bronze, cast iron, plastic, etc.).

3. 

   Now you need to think about what the main sketch of the part will be, including detailed information about its shape.

4. Then you should think about how many drawings (types, sections, detail details and cuts) you will need. It is better if there are few of them. But looking at them, any person should understand the shape, length, width of the part.
5. Now you need to take a piece of paper in a cage of the required size, on which a sketch will be created, draw a frame and provide one line for the title inscription.
6. Then you should carefully look at the detail and establish the ratio of its elements. After that, you need to draw all the sketches.
7. Next, you need to set what dimensions to write. This is an important step. Then you need to draw dimension and extension lines. It should be noted that if you know what sketches are in general, then it will be easier for you to do all this.
8. Now you need to take a ruler and measure the part.
9. At the last stage, you need to add everything you need, make a title inscription, circle the picture, and also put down the dimensions.

Tattoo sketch

This kind of sketch (also called "flash") is an image drawn on cardboard, sheet or other surface, which is planned to be transferred to the skin. The master does not have to be a specialist in painting, but he needs to have an understanding of the basic rules of executionsketch for a tattoo. He must know this for sure. It should be noted that not all artists can become tattooists. Even if they know what sketches are, the process of creating tattoos may not be up to them.

Flash sets, tattoo rehearsal

It is very important to be able to correctly position the pattern on the body. Therefore, many masters cannot do without flash sets (collections of sketches) of experienced tattoo artists. It is recommended to work with them first of all for beginners. Only with the acquisition of experience will it be possible to start drawing sketches with your own hands. At first, you should limit yourself to creating a tattoo. Sketches, in truth, play a secondary role in this matter.

If a tattoo artist has artistic skills and knows how to create images on sheets, he will easily repeat the picture on the skin. Making a sketch on paper, a person imagines how it will look on the body. The master literally “rehearses” the tattoo, so it will be easier for him to apply the drawing on the skin.

Clothes sketch

This type of sketch is a schematic drawing of clothing. How to do it?

1. In the first step, draw the main lines that will help you in drawing the silhouette of a person, but remember about proportions. Do it carefully.



2. Next, draw the paper into several parts that will match the proportion. Now, in a schematic version, draw the outlines of the torso: if the figure is male, then the chest and shoulders should be wide, and the hips should be narrow. And if shefemale, then everything should be the other way around. Many are aware of what sketches are, but most of them have certain difficulties in creating them. But don't despair.
3. To make the human torso look more believable, draw oval-shaped joints in the preparatory version, drawing thin lines between them.
4. Now draw around the body the contours of the intended item of clothing. Next, start tracing them, while adding the necessary elements and details. It should be clear what kind of cut the item has.
5. It will be easier for you to create a sketch of clothes if you take pictures and photographs from relevant sources as a visual aid. Focus on these images when drawing. This is how you learn how to sketch clothes. In the future, you will perform them quickly and easily.

Now you know a lot about sketches of details, tattoos and clothing models. By following the above rules, you can make a pretty good sketch. Don't be discouraged if you don't succeed the first time - you need to practice a little.
