Problem: Article: Most buildings are shaped like cubes or boxes, so they're the easiest drawings to start. Make a cube or box in the center of your paper. Start adding windows, doors, a roof, and decoration around the outside of your building. When you feel comfortable drawing a building, add more in front of and behind it to make an entire cityscape. Look pictures up online of famous buildings and try to replicate them in your drawing. Use your home as a real-life reference to practice drawing. Try to replicate the shape of the outside of your home in your drawing. Try drawing a street filled with buildings of different sizes to practice your perspective drawing. Monuments like the Eiffel Tower and the Pyramids of Giza have notable appearances, so try capturing how they look on paper. Look up pictures of the landmark you're choosing as references and sketch your drawing lightly with a pencil. Look for a landmark near where you live and practice drawing it. If you can visit the location in person, try drawing it while you're there. Look up pictures of airplanes or jets that pique your interest. Start by drawing a long cylinder for the main body of your plane. Make a cone at one end of the cylinder to make the front of the plane. Draw triangles or long trapezoids on the side and back to create wings and tailfins. Shade your drawing based on where you want to put the light source to make your plane look more 3D. Add clouds in the background to make it look like your plane is flying through the sky. For more of a challenge, look for different planes, such as fighter jets or biplanes. Tanks are big vehicles that look complex, but they're mostly made from boxy shapes and cylinders. Make a long rectangular box for the base and split it into thirds. Stack a slightly smaller box on top for the main body, and another even smaller box on that to make the turret. Draw a long cylinder extending out of the top box to make the gun. Sketch parallel horizontal lines on the first and third sections of the bottom box to make the treads. You can make your tank as simple or as detailed as you want. If you want to add color, try making a camouflage pattern with colored pencils. Look sports cars up online and choose one that you want to try drawing. Start by lightly sketching in the main shape of the body and tires. Once you're happy with the shape, darken the lines you've drawn already and start adding details, like headlights, door handles, rims, and mirrors. Add shading to make your sports car look 3D once it's finished. To make drawing cars easier, draw them from the side so you don't have to worry about adding perspective. Make the windows a dark shade of black so you don't have to draw the interior.
Summary: Draw buildings in perspective to practice basic shapes. Practice drawing famous landmarks to make an easily recognizable piece. Draw an airplane or space shuttle for art that flies off the page. Try drawing a tank if you want to make an easy 3D vehicle. Sketch a sports car to make a modern, angular drawing.

Problem: Article: Although your dominant hand may seem more important, the dominant eye will affect how you see the shot and therefore affect your aim. Performing an eye dominance test will help you figure out which side of your body to hold the bow on. Form a triangle by putting your thumbs together and forefingers together. Choose an object that's about 15 feet away and situate it in the middle of the triangle. Close your left eye and determine if the object stays centered or shifts. Test with the right eye as well. The eye that keeps the object centered is your dominant eye. This is important because bows are designed specifically to be held with either the right or left hand, so it's important to know which is best for you. Archery equipment is pricey and you don't want to make that investment until you know for sure that you want to stick with it. Many archery clubs will loan or let you rent equipment. You can also find a friend or acquaintance that will let you use their equipment while you learn. If you can't find any rental options at clubs near you, find out what kind of return policy they have if you use the equipment for a while and decide that archery is not a good fit for you. Poundage, also called draw weight, is a descriptor of how much weight it takes to pull the bow string back. Your size and strength will determine the poundage that will serve you best. This is one of the things an expert at an archery club can help you with. For example, a child starting out would want a draw weight between 10-20 lbs, depending on their size. A large man would want at the highest 35 lbs. Choosing a draw weight that is too high for you will make shooting too difficult, but it can also cause injury in your arms because you'll strain at pulling the string back. You also don't want it to be too easy to pull the string back, as this will cause you to over-pull the string. Even experienced archers often use arm guards and shooting gloves/finger tabs. An armguard will protect you from the snap of the string, while a shooting glove/tab will protect your fingers from the strain of pulling the string back. Besides the safety aspects, these are also good for accuracy and smooth shots. The armguard keeps your clothes from catching on the string. The glove aids a smooth release of the string. There is no shame in using help and taking extra precaution when you first start out. When you get comfortable, you can decide to stop using safety equipment if you want. A chest guard is another recommended piece of safety equipment. It goes across the shoulder of the arm that holds the bow. It serves to flatten your clothing so the string doesn't snag on them. If you are shooting in the woods, or around other shooters, it's important to wear bright clothing, usually orange, to make yourself highly visible to reduce shooting accidents. based on your draw length. Arrows are made of wood, aluminum, carbon, and fiberglass, each with their specific benefits. The material is less important than getting the proper arrow length. Measure your arm span and divide by 2.5. Then choose arrows that are 12 inches (2.55.1cm) longer than that. Another test is to standing perpendicular to a wall, and stick your arm out straight allow the knuckles of your closed fist to rest against the wall. Then turn toward the wall and measure from the wall to the corner of your mouth. Add 12 inches (2.55.1cm) and this is a good length for arrows.
Summary: Test for eye dominance. Rent or borrow the equipment when you first start. Choose a bow with the proper poundage. Use safety equipment. Choose arrows

Problem: Article: If you're using the same container you shampooed the hair in, dump out the soapy mixture and clean the tub. Then, fill it up with enough cool or lukewarm water to cover the hair completely. Using conditioner will prevent the hair from tangling while helping it stay soft and shiny. Fabric softener will make the hair significantly softer, but it will not address tangling, clumping, or similar issues. If you're using conditioner, look for products labeled as 'synthetic safe' or something similar. Fully stretch out the synthetic hair, then set it in the solution. Press the hair down until it is fully submerged, then leave it in the water for at least 10 minutes. For damaged hair, try soaking it for 30 minutes, an hour, or even a full night. Just like when you shampooed it, move the hair up and down and from side to side, making sure every strand gets covered with conditioner or fabric softener. To avoid unnecessary damage, do not rub the hair or handle it harshly. If you're letting the hair sit for a long time, you only need to agitate it for the first 5 to 10 minutes. When you're ready to dry the hair, remove it from the tub. Leave any remaining conditioner or fabric softener in, that way the hair can continue to absorb it.
Summary:
Fill a tub with cool water. Mix in .5 cups (120ml) of conditioner or fabric softener. Place the hair in the tub for at least 10 minutes. Agitate the hair by swishing it around in the water. Remove the hair but do not rinse out the conditioner or fabric softener.
