One neat thing I noted is that sometimes objects don't ALL have to hit a focal point. I've been one to try so hard to make their edges converge to a single point, knowing that they just won't look how I want.

Foreshortening will always be the bane of my existence, especially with things like fingers and arms. I LOVE atmospheric perspective, and right now I'm using it as practice in Blender 3D. One thing I still gotta practice is adding more things into a scene. Mine tend to look a little...meh. As for the favourite artworks, I'd better dig into my old collections because I can't think of any currently. I did, however, collect several during concept art courses. I'm gonna look then edit this post. :D

I'm currently working in Blender anyway, and I need to get back to sketching ideas sometimes, which I did! I did a few before going into the 3D of it again. Off and on for years, bu I do LOVE 3D play. I want to make stylized, somewhat whimsical works that sell the perspective and don't always look like a "mistake", so making many mistakes anyway, maybe I'll slide some in if they work for whatever I do. Hee hee. :)

I only did a page for this time. I gave myself plenty of things to do, and trying this just once isn't nearly enough. I'll do it again! Since I haven't a compass, I'll use a stencil that I have; I did print off circles first. :P Oh yeah! I started from the bottom right, since I'm left-handed. Much easier to deal with!

I printed a triangular graph pattern but the blue was way too dark. Still, I used tracing paper over it and got myself in over my head! LOL I'll just try again. It's certainly reusable. ;)

"I WILL GET YOU." "HAHAHAHAHAH"

Wonderful video, Phil and Marshall! It's great to see and hear from the artist himself, so I'm getting a lot from these different artists and how they even begin. By imagination? I'm there. LOL!

I'm gonna share progress, I just never have time to make it! No matter what crud I put on the paper, I'll show it soon. Until then, I should be able to figure out the triangles! And...hee hee! That joke. LOL, I can't help but laugh at it. Awesome getting a Bible verse, I like that one! XD

I thought I'd show the couple tries I did with isometric illusion. I realize that I don't get it. LOL I can't figure out how to make the illusion, even if I made a bit of it. I'm not sure where my mindset needs to be. The first picture I used just the protractor and the triangles with a t-ruler. So I didn't mind that way, but I need a bigger place to do this kind of practice. My kitchen table is also a bit small. Heh. The second picture I printed an isometric grid from Adobe and placed it beneath some tracing paper, so I could maybe get a handle on what I'm doing. I think it didn't help the way I'd hoped. I'm better off just using the rulers and not looking at that grid.

Oh, boy...I gotta see what tools I still have. LOL I used mechanical pencils before, but I'm so heavy-handed that they break...all the pencil. :( Once the roads are good again, I'll try and get a 0.7. I don't think I have that. I MIGHT have triangles, even one.
