A way into the drawing

  1. Establish the main shapes

    Place the cap roof over the short wall cylinder.

  2. Connect the structure

    Add the arched door and round window following the wall curve.

  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 tryLet the roof overhang the wall evenly.
