Paper airplane graphite study

One folded paper airplane in three-quarter view, pointed nose, central fold and two coherent triangular wings. Practice form, overlap and selective shading in graphite.

A way into the drawing

1. Establish the main shapes

   Map the nose and central fold axis.

2. Connect the structure

   Extend two folded wing planes from the center.

3. Develop the drawing

   Build three distinct values across the folded planes. Keep the fold edges crisp and let the lightest wing plane retain open paper.

A small thing to tryKeep the wing edges converging toward the same nose.
