Lunar crater fine ink study

One isolated bowl-shaped lunar crater in oblique view, an oval raised rim and recessed floor, no landscape beyond a small local ground patch. Practice clear contours and a few local shadows in fine ink.

A way into the drawing

1. Establish the main shapes

   Set the outer crater ellipse and smaller floor ellipse.

2. Connect the structure

   Connect the rim slopes to the recessed floor.

3. Develop the drawing

   Refine the clear outer contour, add only the most useful interior details and place a few small local shadows. Leave most of the paper open.

A small thing to tryMake the far inner wall visible above the crater floor.
