Asked for help
Hi Marshall!
Here are my isometric illusions. I struggled a bit at first, but doing some rough sketches helped me get into the groove of it. I ended up drawing out a quick isometric graph as a base to help me see things more clearly, and I also found that starting in the bottom right corner of the drawing and building upward made it much easier.

I love Kay Nielsen so much! He's my favorite illustrator :) I was so surprised to see you use his artwork to discuss perspective, but having watched the lecture it makes a lot of sense. This was a great lesson!

Hi! My name is Leil. I’m currently studying to become a concept artist with a focus on live action character/costume design. I love anything fantasy or sci-fi. My favorites include Lord of the Rings, Baldur’s Gate 3, Doctor Who, and Star Wars.
1.
I don’t really have favorite perspective artists- instead I tend to gather pieces that I like from various sources. I really like interior environment designs, especially the cutaway style pieces from FZD School of Design. Growing up, I loved the cutaway illustrations of castles from Osprey’s history books for children. I would love to be able to draw medieval castles, taverns, kitchens, libraries, pirate ships, etc.
I love the idea of being able to create a cozy, beautiful space full of magic and character.
I’ve attached some pieces I really like. Even though my focus is character/costume design, environment design is something I definitely want to be proficient in as well.
2.
I have learned one-point, two-point and three-point perspective before, but I feel that the classes I’ve taken were not as thorough or clear as I would have liked.
I am particularly intimidated by drawing buildings/cities/villages. I want to deepen my understanding of various perspective grids, drawing architecture, staircases, ellipses, shadow mapping, and placing figures/animals in a piece as well.
I’m very excited for this class! I have enjoyed learning from Marshall before through Proko’s anatomy course, and I feel that the level of instruction will be much higher than what I’ve experienced in my past perspective courses.

@Proko Support I keep getting errors when trying to use the models are they still functional?
