Easy grids for Photoshop and Illustrator: https://riaanmarais.gumroad.com/l/tosxpk

In part one, I will show you how to start the process of creating an isometric level. We will create the building blocks for a castle. I will show you how to set your camera in blender for quick and easy reference buildings which we will use to trace over in Photoshop.

The Blender camera needs to be set to orthographic.
Set the camera's transform rotations to:
X 60 degrees
Y 0 degrees
Z 45 degrees

I took a screenshot of the scene in Blender, but you can export a render.
Then I show you how to use the 3D image to draw your isometric assets.

In upcoming tutorials, we will add more building assets and other objects like carts, benches and whatever was used in medieval times.
