Started with a very simple form and glad I did because it's not easy! Few lessons learned: -I consistently made the faces of the smaller boxes similar in size between drawings, when in reality their size should change in proportion to the corresponding face of the large box -Foreshortening is easy to under-do in the more extreme angles -Consider the distance of the vanishing point in convergence of parallel lines (top right - lines converge slightly but they should be truly parallel in this 1 point view) -The blob approach was helpful, though my problem is I have a tendency to stick to rigidly to the blob (which leads me to a question) Question: does anyone else experience a sort of favouritism for the line(s) you have already drawn even if you know their not quite right? I sometimes find it hard to forget a mark or break away from it simply because its there 😅 I'm looking forward to getting more reps and practice AND very excited to get into the meat and gravy of perspective!

I guess I will start my own 2 weeks challenge for this project Day 1: start with a simple box-like object, try to add some complexity in later days. 1st pic = blob approach, 2 nd pic starts to add some useful details, at the same time practice my line. Hopefully I ll improve bit by bit after these 2 weeks. Question to ask: 1. try to do square in perspective, not sure if those are or not. coz we need a circle in perspective to know that, but at the same time we need a square in perspective to know the ellipse is circle or not... kind of in a egg first or chicken first, logic loop? 2. I think I am no sure about how to draw the ellipse within an ellipse for depth measure. e.g the smallest ellipses in the 2nd pic. 3: seems like the width of the clock was not controlled well enough when I now look at them, any way to solve that or just attention to detail. Love this project and we did something similar in the basic course, now its more like a continuity of it, and thats cool.

As others have already said, I remember doing a similar assignment on Drawabox and this gave me a good reminder to keep on doing these exercises as warm-ups. I'll be honest, I didn't really ghost a lot of these lines. It feels like if I ghost the line too much, I'll start over-thinking it and freak myself out then fray the line. Or maybe I'm just rusty, who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.(The arrows are the directions I drew the line from)

This has been a fun assignment. But it needed a lot more time than expected, and I needed to adjust my idea. I hope I did get it right. 

This was harder than I thought! I started with a simple illusion that I found with the cubes. Then I created my own illusion. I was inspired by the Sandro Del Prete arches but as I went on I got more ambitious! It took some brain work but each corner of my arches is perspectively impossible with the others! Thanks for the assignment!

Marshall, this one video highlighted the problem I've run into in every single perspective course I've ever taken. The "subdividing" trick is among only a few things that stuck from my last perspective course. I learned how to identify one, two, three point perspective. But I never fully understood the tools I was being handed. Everything was so lost in the vocabulary and the tricks, without a clear grasp of the wider applications and with NO understanding of how to freehand any of it. Too rigid and disconnected from the rest of the drawing process to integrate those tools into my work.... Here I've two little practice sessions. On the left, I've done what worked for me with figure drawing by doing some timed studies from photos. Just to broaden my visual library and get better at understanding space from photos. On the right, two slower sketches attempting to exercise the perspective learning from imagination...

Hi guys! This is my first attempt at the rapids. I would appreciate any feedback! I was quite happy with how it turned out but I would like to try out other angles that are less straight forward that this front on view.

Gave it a try studying rapids as well. I found it very clear to start with ellipses then I sketched on top the supporting details. I tried to show the rounded form of water falling off the edges but it was tough. The foam was 😭 Feedback always appreciated!

I’m interested in cinematic perspective for storyboarding, comics, and illustration. I’d like to develop a sense of intuitive perspective to freely control my camera in 2d space. I’d like to be able to translate my understanding and love of cinematography and lenses to my art. I particularly admire concept and storyboard artist Rick Buoen’s (@penrod_banks) use of incredibly gestural cinematic perspective in his storyboards. This opening two page spread from Arzak by Moebius feels like a huge continuous sweeping camera move. Travis Charest’s Spacegirl has some incredibly cinematic perspective. Other perspective masters I admire for their ability to place the camera in their work are David Finch, Rembert Montald, and Peter Han.
