The grid can aid you when using the isometric perspective with text and fonts.
We have now completed our design and this is what it looks like. If you wish to hide the guides to check your design without them, go to View > Guides > Hide Guides (Command/Control + ). You can also make 3D geometrical shapes like in the image below. You can use this to write simple vector text or to make other objects. You can use the Pen tool (P) to start creating Isometric vectors. Your Grid is now ready to be used as a guide. Step 4 - Use the Grid to create Isometric Designs You should notice that the grid color changed to the same one that is assigned to the document guides. Without deselecting, go to View > Guides > Make Guides (Command/Control + 5) to turn it into guides. We are going to turn the grid into guides so we can use it as references for Isometric designs. The resulting grid should look like the image below. In the options, we used an Angle of -30°. We used a Shear Angle of 30° with a Horizontal Axis.įinally, to rotate the grid, go to Object > Transform > Rotate. In the Scale panel, check the Non-Uniform button, and use a Vertical Scale of 86.602%. Make sure that it is selected and go to Object > Transform > Scale. We need to adjust the Grid so it has the correct measurements and perspective to create isometric designs.
Step 2 - Adjust the Grid to the Isometric perspective Hold the Shift key while dragging down and right to create it making sure that it extends beyond the canvas edges. Now, we are going to create a grid that is larger than our document. A value of 30 can be used depending on your needs.
Select the Rectangular Grid tool and click inside the canvas to bring out the Tool Options panel.įor the Horizontal and Vertical Dividers, we used a value of 20. To make your grid, create a new document. The technique is super quick to use so let’s get started.
The Isometric Grid is very handy for creating isometric illustrations with the correct perspective.
