How do I git gut at drawing hard surface objects such as cars, planes, trucks etc?
Learn about perspective
Get the tools and practice technical drawing (aka drafting).
same as with organic surfaces, ya collect up your visual library and apply construction in perspective to them. Fundies apply to all forms of shape languages.
Though, yeah, there's a lot more emphasis on mirroring, cause ya know... symmetry.
Pic related, a personal sketch with mirroring experience behind it.
