2034Where this could take you
In 2034, you could be designing incredible backdrops for Olympic ceremonies or creating jaw-dropping art installations for visitors.
What You'll Need
Optional materials for this quest.
Drawing pencils and ruler set
RequiredA set of graphite pencils in multiple grades (HB, 2B, 4B) plus a clear ruler — everything you need to lay down clean horizon lines and precise vanishing-point lines for perspective work.
Sketchbook (9x12 or larger)
RequiredA sturdy sketchbook with at least 50 pages gives you plenty of room to practice full street scenes and architectural drawings without running out of space too quickly.
Fine-line black ink pens
Once your pencil sketch is solid, tracing over it with fine-line ink pens makes the final piece pop and adds professional crispness to your lines — great for portfolio work.
