Question

How can I draw a keyboard in pencil?

Community Answer

Use your ruler or any straight edge to make the outline and keys perfectly straight. Draw lightly at first, and when you have it right, press a bit harder to darken the lines. Finish by shading the keys and edges.

Question

Can I draw the computer on chart paper?

Community Answer

Sure. You can draw it anywhere you want as it is your decision. But, I think it would be easier to draw it on a blank piece of paper as you have the freedom to draw however you want and also you are not restricted to straight lines and squares.
