Sketching Exercise 3 -Toothpaste Tube
Start by drawing a box in perspective with your lightest ink. Next create a cylinder inside of the box, and then draw a diagonal line across the top of the box and connect the lines to create a toothpaste tube. Use your lightest value for all lines until you have "found" the correct form. Then re-draw only the visible lines using a darker value. Next, add surface shading and line weights. Now add some text and other artwork to finish the tube.
