[ques] Anyone have any tips for making console images?

I want to add in some consoles via modding, and I want the images for said consoles to look similar to the models in the vanilla game. Anyone with more art savvy know of a way to make image files similar to those in vanilla GDT?

I would like tutorials for this too lol. Maybe not as crisp and clean but at least a starting point that I can improve on.

Searching for inkscape isometric tutorials gives a few promising results:

Obviously we orient consoles towards the lower-right (instead of the lower-left as shown in the above image).
