In our last tutorial we substituted a graphical representation of a chess board for a, rather more boring, textual one. This tutorial, we’re going to move our representation into three dimensions with an isometric view of the same Model. You are probably familiar with isometric views as they are often used in video games. Isometric representations attempt to give a three dimensional view of a subject, but without a perspective distortion (when there is a perspective parallel lines meet somewhere).
