  • Frustrated that so many vanishing points are clearly off the paper? That it becomes so hard to get accurate perspective angles for your buildings and streetscapes? Here is a very simple technique for locating the corners of any building that will fit on your paper, regardless of how far away either or both of the vanishing points will be.

    I always have trouble drawing realistic tiled floors.

      Sometimes the best approach is to create the effect without drawing every one. 😀

      Haha. I think many of us have band occasionally it may be a worthwhile effort. No rules, just using the most helpful choice. 😀

    This method of drawing the horizontal lines from the far corners of the one existing side in a drawing - I'm not sure that will work if the sides of the building are of different lengths, correct? Your example from 0:45, for instance, the opposing corners are not on the same horizontal lines. And it seems to me this difference will be even greater for the top opposing corners of a multi-story building when a drawing is from the perspective of a viewer at street level. Am I misunderstanding?
    (I do love your videos, by the way, and they have helped me immensely in my own drawings)

    • @RussellTeapot
      @RussellTeapot 8 дней назад +1

      Yes, you are correct! This method only works if the opposite corners have the same height and they are both located onto an horizontal line parallel to the picture plane, meaning they are at the same distance from the point of view. Imagine a plan view of the building: now imagine the base of the building is a square tilted by 45° with respect of the view axis. The left and right opposite corners will lay on an horizontal line which is parallel to the picture plane (which in the plan view you'll see from the top, so it's going to look like a line). Hope I'm making sense here :D

      They don’t have to be equal lengths. I positioned the left hand wall edge close to desde of my notional paper. Imagine if the centre corner was further to the right. Now the length hand wall is much wider. However, we can now choose any width for that left hand wall between its two ends. It can be shorter than the right hand wall, or even off the page, if we don’t put the left side in at all. I should have made this more clear. Perhaps I will remake it in the future and show this explicitly 😀

      The walls don't have to be equal lengths but the opposite corners do have to be the same height (that is to say that if the right-hand corners of the building are one-story high, then the left-hand corners also need to be one-story high). It can get complicated for sure, but Stephen's points about basic perspective are well described in this presentation. A lot of what he says can be extended to multi-story buildings as a lot of times those are made up of boxes stacked on one another in various ways.

      ​@@milehighslacker4196 Even if the corners are the same height in real life - they may not be the same height on the page. Imagine a building that is 10m wide on one side, but 100m on the other. The distant top corner of the 100m side will be lower on the page than that of the 10m side.

      @@milehighslacker4196 What I was getting at is an occasion where one side of the actual building, in real life, is longer than the other. Imagine a building that is 10m in length on one side, and 100m on the other. Though all corners are the same height in actuality, on the page they will not be. The far top corner of the 100m side will be lower on the page than the far corner of the 10m side.
