This post was about playing with Inkscape‘s configurable Axonometric (isometric in this case) Grid tool. I set the grid to be shown, and then started to build out a toaster on a counter. After creating the top, side, and front, I added the handle and slots. I then created some toast, introducing some curvature to the design. Then, I added some wisps of steam and a face. I enjoyed the layering so much, I decided to take the opacity down a bit to show the innards of the device. I duplicated the top wall of the device, made it dark grey, applied a blur, and placed it below the toaster to make a shadow, Finally, I placed a few shapes in the background to create a counter surface.
