Watch this video for an introduction to drawing 3D letters
Remember it is important to choose your own style, your own letters and your own logo to make your product individual to you.
Let you 3D letters/word match your puzzle maze.
During this lesson, you will have a go at drawing lettering that is 3D.
You can start by drawing a letter of your choice in 3D using either pencil, pen and paper or a drawing app. Look at the examples above and to the right. You can try different styles.
Once you have mastered a single letter, you can then have a go at making a logo for you puzzle game in 3D. There are lots of videos and examples on this page to help you but the only way to learn is by having a go!
Make sure you attach photo's of what you do, to today's assignment in Google Classroom so your teacher can see your work.

This video time lapse shows all the steps from start to finish, including colouring.
Procreate is a great app to draw and design 3D letters and shapes but you can actually use any drawing app to get similar results.
Letters are a simple and easy to shape. The perspective (3D angle) is the same direction for all letters. 3 simple colours are used to create shadow and depth.
Letters a fun and wacky shapes. The perspective (3D angle) changes and has no fixed rules or direction. Colours are simple but still add shadow.
Letters are drawn on a fixed angle with a fixed perspective (3D angle). The size, angle and direction of the letters are very important and must all match. Colours add shadow.
Why not give this a try!
