It's All About the Angles - isometric drawings
So, what makes an isometric drawing different from other 3-dimensional drawings? The axes are
drawn so that the two horizontal axes are drawn at 30-degree angles. It's as if the vertical axis is
in its true position, but the horizontal axes are bent 30 degrees from their true position.
Examples
Here are some examples of isometric drawings. Notice that each image shows three axes to
represent each dimension of the object: the vertical axis is blue and two horizontal axes are
drawn in orange and green.
