Time for a very short Instructable!
These are two drawings out of my sketchbook, created as a small assignment for my portfolio class this year. The main image depicts the outside of a residence built from a barn silo. The second image depicts the 4th storey, the bedroom, and the staircase leading up to the walkway under the glassed in dome on the very top of the silo.

Drawings first rough sketched in pencil, than traced with permanent drawing markers and colored in with warm and cool grays.
