CONCEPT
SKETCHES
Sketching is an important aspect of this kind of design because it allows you to feel out the physical lines and details of the product, effectively transitioning it from a mere concept to a tangible 3D representation. This process not only enhances your understanding of the design but also helps to answer questions you didn’t even know you needed the answers to.
For instance, it can clarify how exactly you’re going to construct a giant eyeball or which fabrics perfectly capture the texture of your favorite characters.
