It has to do with the view point and the cone of vision. Watching my playlist on perspective may help.

If you watch my perspective playlist these will be answered :)

Great! Glad it helped with your class :)

I like to think of them as fingers hugging the ribcage. But that’s a little creepy, wings are nicer :)

Repetition is the key!

That’s a great question! The system of linear perspective approximates how our eyes view the world, so it looks natural and correct. This is because of the convergence of lines to a vanishing point. Since isometric perspective doesn’t converge it doesn’t truly represent how we see the world in perspective. Which is why we wouldn’t consider it “true” perspective. However! Isometric perspective works because we use it for constructing simple forms or figures to look 3D, it’s just those objects are pretty close to us. In linear perspective when objects are close the amount of convergence is pretty subtle so isometric is a simple and effective shorthand. Isometric perspective can’t be used tho to make deep perspective like a street feel correct. Likewise if we are drawing a figure that is in an extreme position like we are looking down on, we would need to resort to linear perspective. I hope that makes sense!

@@DrawshStudio so the only time one should use isometric perspective is if the figure or object is close by?

Thank you so much! It is a tricky one but Glad it helped :)

In the accurate version, the tile is a perfect square on the ground.

Wow, I appreciate the support. Thank you!

That question is answered in my previous perspective videos. I suggest watching my whole playlist. :)

Happy it clarified the legs for you! Thanks for reaching out :)

Hopefully some day I will be able to do some 3 point videos :)

I’m right there with you.

It is a perceptual difference in how we view ellipses. This is the bEst way to approximate our vision on paper.

The method would work the same however instead of using the second vanishing point you would travel parallel to horizon (x axis). It may help to start with a 1 point grid (check out my video on grids).

Awesome! I’m glad this helped add a wrinkle in your brain :)

Glad you liked it!!

I was a freshman in high school! It was a glorious time without social media and many things that have made our lives “better” :) That is so awesome for your daughter, I wish her luck and happy these videos could help in some way. Thanks for the support.

High praise and much appreciated :)

Thank you so much, Maestro is officially going on my business card :) Very happy that these videos are helpful. Because of the labor intensive process it takes to make the videos I have had to pause but do have a patreon that focuses on figure drawing and anatomy handouts. Thanks again for the support!

Or a new hard cider :)

It’s such a great tool to understand form. Glad it impacted you!

Awesome! I’m so happy the videos have helped you understand better!

🤔

You are very welcome :)

Thanks, this was a fun one :)

👍🏽

Thank you. :) you are a good student :)

I have a video on where and how to choose vanishing point, check out my perspective playlist. :)

Thanks again! I have a Patreon where I have been posting lots of anatomy and figure handouts. No videos yet.

Very thankful for your kind words and very happy they are of benefit to you! Cheers!

You place them where you want. The higher up the steeper the angle of your plane.

@@DrawshStudio thank you Drawshstudio ♥️

When viewing ellipses on the horizontal plane, they are always oriented in 1 point because they are view them flat to our perspective.

You are welcome ;)

I appreciate the kind words. Ellipses are a daunting subject so I am glad this helped!

You are welcome, I am happy this helped you understand the complicated topic :)

It’s nice to be able to have a more accurate setup :)

It’s a strange fact of how we perceive ellipses in this view.

Glad to hear these lessons are helping!

I didn’t :) I just eyeballed a dimension the felt right for the design. If I needed them the same, there are tricks for repeating depth that could be used. I cover those in other videos.

​@@DrawshStudio Can you tell me which one? i want to learn how to measure this shape create.

​@@DrawshStudioi found how to repeat depth with same pattern but if i draw front part like in this video but want to draw back part with some random block at middle i try repeat depth like your (lamp pillar) video it not the same.

I recommend watching my whole playlist on perspective. It goes in progressive order and has different ways to measure in space.

I’m not sure what you mean by mathematical proof. In perspective, you can’t rely on mathematics because the variables are to numerous. For example, slightly higher or lower to the horizon changes things. So we rely on steps like this to create something correct in perspective. Ellipses are strange. But it is true they will be a perfect ellipse in linear perspective. Remember tho that linear perspective is an approximation of life to appear correct to our eyes.

@@DrawshStudio by mathematical proof I mean a reasoning for why all sides must be equal length. When I turn a cube in three dimensional space it corresponds with a unique projection on my retina, so surely there's some projective geometry thingy going on.

A cube by definition has equal sides. This method is a way to do that in perspective. The lines aren’t literally equal, but represent equal lengths in perspective.

@@DrawshStudio I know that, what I wish I could find somewhere is a mathematical proof that this method results in a cuboid with all equal sides.

I have had similar questions and I’m always a little confused by them. Perspective exists outside of mathematical numbers, it is sort of the point. When people ask this I’m always a little unsure of the concept in their mind they are looking for. But I wish you luck in your journey.

Awesome! Books are very helpful but sometimes videos make it more clear. Glad it helped!

Generally perspective becomes distorted when it moves outside of the cone of vision. If that is what you mean then yes, it will still work but it won’t look correct to the eye.

You are welcome, I hope it helps your drawing :)

I have videos on cross contour, planar drawing, and complex construction which are all related to this concept :)

You are very welcome :)
