How to Draw an Ice Cream Cone

Adım adım

1. Adım 1

   Uzun ince bir üçgen çiz, aşağıya doğru.

   Not too narrow - the opening at the top should be about as wide as one scoop of ice cream, and about half as wide as the triangle is tall. A cone that is too thin reads as a party hat immediately.

   Dikkat et. Making the triangle too narrow and too long.

   Kontrol et. The triangle should be roughly twice as tall as it is wide.

2. Adım 2

   Tepeyi düz bir çizgi değil, sığ bir eğri ile kapatın.

   The opening of a cone is a circle seen at an angle, so it curves. Which way it curves tells the viewer whether they are looking slightly down into the cone or up at it - pick one and commit.

   Dikkat et. A straight line across the top, which flattens the whole cone.

   Kontrol et. The top should be a visible curve.

3. Adım 3

   Alttaki kaşıkları, koni açılışının üzerinde bir çember olarak çiz.

   It has to sit ON the cone, which means its lower edge disappears behind the cone's rim. If the circle merely touches the top of the cone, the ice cream will look balanced there rather than resting in it.

   Dikkat et. A circle that sits on top of the rim without crossing it.

   Kontrol et. The circle should cross the cone's top curve.

4. Adım 4

   Üstteki kaşıkla ilk kaşıkla örtüşecek şekilde ekle.

   Slightly smaller, and offset to one side rather than balanced dead centre - two scoops stacked perfectly reads as a snowman. Let it cross in front of the lower scoop's outline.

   Dikkat et. Perfectly centred scoops of identical size.

   Kontrol et. The top scoop should be off-centre and slightly smaller.

5. Adım 5

   Ön şekillerinin arkasında saklı olan çizgileri sil.

   This is the step that turns three separate shapes into one object. Anything behind something else goes: the cone rim behind the scoop, the bottom scoop where the top one covers it. Overlap only works once you commit to it.

   Dikkat et. Leaving the construction lines visible, which makes everything look transparent.

   Kontrol et. No line should cross in front of a shape that is nearer to you.

6. Adım 6

   Kaşık kenarlarını mükemmel yuvarlak yerine pürüzlü yap.

   Go round each circle and add three or four shallow bumps. Ice cream is soft and slumps; a perfectly circular scoop reads as a tennis ball, and the fix costs about ten seconds.

   Dikkat et. Making the bumps regular, which looks like a flower.

   Kontrol et. The outline should be uneven but still clearly round.

7. Adım 7

   Waffle ağını çiz: bir yönde eğik çizgiler, sonra diğer.

   Both sets of lines curve with the cone, and they get closer together as the cone narrows toward the point. Lines drawn on a curved surface must curve - that single idea is worth more than the cone is.

   Dikkat et. A flat straight grid, which makes the cone look like a piece of graph paper.

   Kontrol et. The grid lines should be closer together near the point.

8. Adım 8

   Bir ışık yönünü seç ve her bir kaşıkın bir tarafını gölgele.

   A scoop is a ball, so it is light on the side facing the light and dark on the other, with the darkest part just inside the edge rather than at it. Shade both scoops from the same side or they will look like separate drawings.

   Dikkat et. Shading each scoop from a different direction.

   Kontrol et. The shadow should be on the same side of both scoops.

9. Adım 9

   Üstteki kaşıkla alttaki kaşıkın buluştuğu yere bir gölge koy.

   Wherever one thing sits on another it casts a small shadow there, and that little dark crescent is what makes the top scoop sit ON the bottom one rather than beside it. Same at the cone's rim.

   Dikkat et. No contact shadows, so the scoops read as flat circles arranged on a page.

   Kontrol et. There should be a dark crescent at every place two shapes meet.

10. Adım 10

    Konusunu gölgelendir, en koyu renk kaşıkların aynı tarafında.

    A cone is a cylinder that tapers, so it shades the same way: dark on the shadow side, with a thin lighter strip right at the edge where light bounces back up. Keep the strokes following the cone's slope.

    Dikkat et. Shading straight up and down, ignoring the cone's angle.

    Kontrol et. Your strokes should follow the sloping side of the cone.

11. Adım 11

    Saklamak istediğiniz çizgilerin üzerine gidin ve yönlendiricileri kaybedin.

    This is the step that turns a construction drawing into a finished one, and it is the one most people skip. Press harder on the outline and the features; leave the small stuff light. That difference in weight is what makes a drawing look deliberate rather than traced, and it costs thirty seconds.

    Dikkat et. Going over everything at the same weight, which flattens the drawing back out.

    Kontrol et. The outline should be clearly darker than the smallest details.
