the last two are wrong, the first ones are right depending on the light source

Yes i think the same. The first are correct (comprobate).

But the other two the "look" for me is incorrect.

Well if you or anybody can make a edit to correct shadow, or... ¿Any tutorial that isometric shadows?  ;D

You were almost there,
I've done a quick edit on the second two shadows. Nothing too complex with shapes like this, all you need to do is make a projection line for each of the casting corners. I've illustrated this by leaving the red lines in I used to figure out the shape. then just copy the shape of the top surface.

Hey very thanks neverest!!  ;D

Yes is correct, i making a proofs but i dont get the form desired, and yes is this, copy the top/under surface of the isometric object and put in any site. And after is make 2 equal lines etc...

Yes, i understand the process :)

Obviously it does depend on your light source but only using 30 degree lines for shading isn't technically true. A few places i have seen they do there ISO shadows like this...
