Draft

For my drafts, I first started off by drawing boxes of 1cm x 1 cm as a guideline to ensure that my drawings are in the centre and straight.

Here's a time-lapse of myself drawing.

Reflection

From this assignment, I have learnt to use proper tools such as T-square, Set squares, scale ruler to produce accurate drawings through online lectures and tutorial videos. This would be really useful in the future, especially, to create professional and understandable drawings in the industry.

As usual, I would communicate with my tutors to check on my progress, to ensure that it is on the right track. Also, at the same time, I would ask for advice or tips from my foundation tutors or seniors.

With all the assignments from the other modules piling up together, it was certainly challenging to manage my work and time. I had to create my own schedule in order to complete my work few days before submission. After this project, I have learnt to manage my time better to avoid rushing assignments in the end.
