Question

im not talking about drawing people, but like structures, buildings, architecture, that kind of stuff, people would be nice, but whare can i start on learning on drawing, what supplies should i use? ive been using stickies with a 0.5 mechanical pencil. i have no idea whare to start.

Dont worry about software, alredy know VB and C, as far as software art goes, Bryce 5, Poser 5/6, trueSpace7, Lightwave, Maya and 3DS max 8, drawing is the last thing on my list, and its next

im only interested in drawing buildings, i have no ideas on charaters, on an hourly basis, new ideas on homes, offices and stuff pop up, and i want to draw them, not people. i never asked to learn programming, im doing that on my own.

Answer 1

Buy or check out the book from the library titled:
Drawing with the Right Side of Your Brain.

I recommend this book to anyone who is interested in drawing as a hobby or as a related creative career. The book has practical & fun excercises to follow to teach yourself how to draw. It's a good basic foundation for drawing.

Buy a large newsprint pad of paper, it's cheap & you will be going through many practice drawings. A charcoal, soft lead pencil is a good start.

Answer 2

sigh... these guys are idiots.. you wanna learn how to DRAW ARCHTECTURE NOT LEARN DAM PROGRAMMING.
ok. find out where there is art classes around your area, and take some courses on perspective drawing. Just say you want to start perspective and i recommend to learn shading with it too.

learning all forms of visual arts is good dont limit to archetectual structure kind of stuff.

Answer 3

an writing utensil should do for learning purposes, as each of them can be masters in their own right, but the best place to start is by placing it on any surface and making a line.

Answer 4

Pen/Pencil and paper. Use your creativity!
