What is the scale and why scale must be considered when the draughtman drawing the plan?
Scale is how much smaller(or bigger) the drawing is compared to the real object. It'd be real awkward if you were drawing a house to have to make the drawing as big as the house would be. But for the drawing to work out you need to know how to translate between the drawing and reality - so you decide something. Scale 1:12 for instance would mean that something that's one inch in the drawing would be one foot in reality.
What is the life cycle of a pencil?
Noone can say the proccess of Pencil Manufacturing as Life Cycle. A NORMAL Pencil can be sharpened up to 150 mm of its total length. This means a smooth and soft point (2 mm) of pencil lead can be formed nearly 50 times by sharpner if the lead do not breaks. The remain part of pencil, nearly 1" can be used in pencil holder and it may give 2-3 time sharpening. A Pencil can DRAW a line of 35 k.m. length and this is the life cycle of a pencil. Today an averauge student below age group of 12 years consume 3 pencil in a week. This due to their habit of shrpening a pencil again and again!! Do you know, why children keeps on sharpening Pencil?? Because the proccess of sharpening a Pencil help them to sharpen their BRAIN!!

Understanding your subject first is always the best approach. First get the base shapes you want for your sword. Is the blade straight or curved? What kind of hilt and pommel does it have? Is there any furniture on the sword? What materials make up the hilt? Since there are so many variations on the sword perhaps these general tips will help you. Make sure that you pay special attention to the way light reflects off of the blade. Usually tones on shiny metal will be lots of bright areas and a few very dark areas. Make sure to use distinguishable tones for the fuller and the edge. Usually handles are wrapped in leather or cord. Both of these materials have enough variations that whatever you do for the handle will probably work. If you're having trouble with perspective, use a cardboard cut out if you can't get a model or a better analog. Just make keep the angles of the blade in mind.
What pens are best to use for colouring in anime?

The most common floor plan of a house?
what 90% of Americans are living in now. originality comes from architects, not developers and since only 10% of the housing market is handled by architects that means that the other 90% is just some rearranged value engineered overused wasteful floor plan done by some developer who only cares about the return investment not the quality of life the home could have offered

Can you trace a picture onto construction paper?
All you need to do is have that picture that you want to trace. Then on the back of that paper, take your pencil and shade the back of that picture and remember to shade the parts where your picture is. Then you get that other paper and put the paper with the picture on top of it. You just trace it on and the picture will trace onto the other paper.

Carry a sketch book (and a pencil) with you all the time. Whenever you have a bit of time, pull it out and draw anything and everything you see. Always, date your sketches and when you fill up one sketch book start another. I was told by my favourite "famous" artist, that I should never destroy your old sketch books as they are a record of how much your talents have changed and improved. They are also a great source of subjects for future drawings.
first find a book with lots of pictures and copy them then go a bit more detailed when you think you have gotten pretty good at it think of other creations and draw then free handed
Can you draw a square with an X in it in one line?

Mathematics
Perspective is a mathematical system for projecting the three-dimensional world onto a two-dimensional surface. It allows a flat image to convey a three-dimensional state.
The linear perpective relies on lines of sight converging on either one or two vanishing points. Our position in relation to the base (on which an object sits) affects how much of the objects we see, and what view we have of the space around them.
As a Subjective View
Perspective is an individual's "point of view". It can subjectively color his or her interpretation of events and policies, because he sees how they affect his particular area or group.
Putting art aside for a moment, according to one dictionary, the word perspective originally comes from the Latin words per meaning "through" and specere which means "to look." These are combined to mean "to look through" or "to look at."
However, the meaning of a word can change and usually even splits into several meanings over time. The conventional "art definition" of perspective specifically describes creating the appearance of distance into our art. This emphasis on distance stems from it being a difficult and impressive effect to achieve, especially on paper that is completely flat. Here we are attempting to convey a sense of reality with space and depth on something which has none. As such, the most typical "art definition" of perspective has evolved into:
"The technique of representing a three-dimensional image on a two-dimensional surface."
But being three-dimensional means that an object has height and width, not just depth alone. Despite this, perspective became less about three-dimensional form than obsessing almost exclusively on that third dimension of depth. This is so much the case that it is commonly referred to as depth perspective.
Furthermore, perspective already exists while seeing in reality where no kind of flat surface is involved. There are also perspective art forms that make no use of flat surfaces in their final states such as interior design, landscape design, stage set design, sculpture, architecture or in any kind of display or exhibit.
With that said, "the technique of representing a three-dimensional image on a two-dimensional surface" does not actually explain what perspective is at all, despite any true importance that depth may have.
First understand that our viewpoint is simply that position we are seeing things from. With that in mind, perspective basically means the same as "viewpoint" and "position." For example, "It looks good from my viewpoint," "It looks good from my position" and "It looks good from my perspective."
Oddly, this meaning of perspective is primarily used outside of art.
So the most general definition of perspective is "a position in relation to different positions." For example, this includes the position of our eye in relation to the positions of objects in a scene.
Applying this to art, we do not necessarily mean the viewpoint of the artist in relation to the subject. More specific, what matters is the best perspective for the audience. A more universal "art definition" of perspective, therefore, is "Creating viewpoints that best communicate a subject to an audience."
Perspective is really about establishing "an eye" in your art through which your audience sees. So although it has been considered the most difficult subject in all of art, its concept is quite simple.

How do you determine the orientation of orthogonal projection in a multi-view drawing?
don't trust this site
A Combined Services Drawing, or CSD, is used in construction. It is an illustration that provides a visual way to look at proposed development plans.
Why would you have to know how to convert measurements when looking at a drawing?
to know whether or not your info and the info your matching is alike. If not you need to convert one to check.
What is the difference between iso and oblique drawing?
Isometric Drawing: keeps the scale the same along each axis of the drawing, use mostly in engineering.
Oblique Drawing: is a type of parallel projection of an object to give it a sort of 3D effect on paper, a much simpler form of drawing.
