Challenge: Sketch an asymmetrical shampoo bottle with hatch lines and a cast shadow

“

- Okay, now it's time to apply what you've been learning throughout this course. I want you to sketch a concept for a package design. This could be a shampoo bottle, for example, or a perfume or a cologne bottle. What we'll focus on is not only constructing form on the fly, but then using hatch lines to cast shadows and even vignettes to help further delineate the concept. My recommendation, before you get started, is to think in terms the carton the bottle would come in. Sketch that as a scaffolding for the bottle, making sure to keep it as light as possible. Build some sectional profiles in every planar orientation, X, Y and Z, and then connect the geometry with a heavier outline, some internal contour lines and hatch lines to suggest shade and shadow. I'll be back in the next video to walk you through my solution and how I arrived at it. Good luck.
