Sketching a wheel in perspective can really make or break your car sketch. In this video I explain the way I simply indicate a five-spoke wheel. Whether you love to draw cars or not, this is a great practice exercise for two reasons: First, you always need to practice eclipses. Second, you practice the simple act of iterating on a known object. Taking something simple and defined like a five-spoke wheel and quickly giving it a unique twist is a great mental exercise.
