TIP 20 Draw a giant creature in a second

Insert a small human silhouette as a scaling measure. Few pen strokes will do.
The creature will appear giant like David and Goliath.

  Hello Chris,
  It’s just a simple tips commonly used that display a standard human as a scaling reference.
  Imagine you draw the human so much bigger than the creature. That creature may look like small like a ant ! So tiny that it won’t be that impressive anymore. :)
  Transport designer, or concept art artist often draw a people beside (or inside) the vehicle to show the scaling for example.
