In this tutorial, you will learn how to draw a mailbox. This is a box that is designed to deliver correspondence. The design of the box may vary.

The mailbox can be located inside the apartment building on the wall, or it can be located on the street. Such a street box has support and a small metal box for collecting letters.

In the picture, you see a standard street box. The box is placed horizontally on a metal pole. The cover is semicircular, the door is located on the side. On the surface of the box, there is a flag that signals the presence of mail. This is the most common model.
