I like doing sketches in isometric perspective. Unfortunately, it seems like almost all of the isometric grid paper I could find on the internet totally sucked.

So I made my own isometric grid paper [PDF].

The lines are grey at 75% brightness. I’ve found that this keeps the focus on whatever you’re putting on top of them while at the same time keeping the lines legible during work. Of course, there’s no watermarks or any other silly stuff that graph-paper providers like to add either.

If you print the PDF at the default size, the diamonds that form the grid are about a 1/2 inch wide, and a little bit less than 1/3 inch tall. The full size of the grid is 10×7.5 inches, perfect for printing on letter sized paper with 1/2 inch margins. If you need a larger grid than that, my paper can pixel-perfectly tile in all directions.

Enjoy! Tell your friends!
