Using Isometric Paper Isometric paper can be used to draw 3D shapes: Given the plan and elevations below, draw the solid on isometric paper Plan Right Side Elevation Front Elevation With Isometric paper, you can ONLY go vertical and diagonal – you CANNOT go across! Choose a point to start with. From 1 dot to another it is 1 unit, so you want to go 3 across. Draw the verticals in…….. Then just follow around the shape until you finish…..
