Drawing Lesson: Basics for Drawing a Box

OK, now we're building the side of the box just like last time, we're building the side of the box so these are going to run parallel. So we're just going to pick some random points and make them parallel. The other side of the box, let's make it, let's make it bigger so we can see what's going on when I start cutting up this box together. OK, with those two lines let?s build the top of the box, so since we're going to have this line and this line we're creating the back side of the box which is going to be running parallel with these so let's connect them together. Same with this one, with these two running this way, let's connect it to that. OK, now that we have that done let's build the back side of the box, the box that we wouldn't see, we want to make it three dimensional so I can, so it would be easier to explain what's going on, so let's build the back of the box now. Bingo, we've got our box and I'm going to take, well, I'm going to take this edge and make it a little bit darker so we can see it better. OK there we go, we've got our box.
