It is basically taking the general construction of vehicles and trying to approach them in the simplest way possible. Your results will look more like basic toys, and won't have any real complexity to them, but it'll help you think through how you might start combining basic forms in arrangements that are found in vehicles.

You are still allowed to use rulers, but for this section you won't be required to use the subdivisions. Treat it as though you're doing the form intersections, but like you're purposely trying to make them look like vehicles from your reference images.

All right thank you! Thanks what I understood but I didn't see that in previous submissions!

The recommendation below is an advertisement. Most of the links here are part of Amazon's affiliate program (unless otherwise stated), which helps support this website. It's also more than that - it's a hand-picked recommendation of something I've used myself. If you're interested, here is a full list.

These are what I use when doing these exercises. They usually run somewhere in the middle of the price/quality range, and are often sold in sets of different line weights - remember that for the Drawabox lessons, we only really use the 0.5s, so try and find sets that sell only one size.

Alternatively, if at all possible, going to an art supply store and buying the pens in person is often better because they'll generally sell them individually and allow you to test them out before you buy (to weed out any duds).
