    Thanks, I never really bothered actually learning this. SEVERAL people have recommended loomis, and loomis does teach some important stuff but my fundamentals were incredibly weak and mediocre. None of what he said actually worked for me because I never practiced drawing actual shapes. Like most beginners, I thought I already mastered that topic. the pencil technique does make more sense than simple eyeballing.

    To Brent Eviston
    I still don't understand. If you want to enlarge the photo, by measuring with pencil, you know the correct proportion... but how can you enlarge it on your canvas in case you want the subject photo larger than your pencil measurement. How do you do that without losing correct proportion? In reality our canvas can be any size such as 30" x 40" and to draw portrait is very critical, how do you modify from pencil measurement to be larger correctly?

    • @SyoDraws
      @SyoDraws Месяц назад

      Using relative proportions instead of length-to-length comparisons will be useful.
      Basically seeing how much one length fits into another measurement, and using that to guide your enlarged sketch (e.g., the ratio of the width to the height of an object). Does that help?

      @@lakra90110 ah, ok
      So, one needs to develop a space in the drawing on which you will start doing the projections from the orthographic view(s).
      It would help to divide the orthographic views into a kind of grid. This means you're splitting the object into its dimensions (e.g., you can split the front view into a 2 x 2 or 4x 4 grid, split the side view into 6 equal lengths, and split the top view likewise.
      Then, in your projection drawing (the perspective one), you want to lightly draw a grid according to the dimensions you defined in the orthographic drawing (i.e., draw up grid planes, in accordance with the perspective vanishing points, with a 2 x 2 dimension for the front and back, 6 x 2 for the side, and 2 x 6 for the top, like how it was defined in the orthographic view (these proportions are just for the sake of example, btw. They can be whatever you want.))
      You should end up with what is basically a rectangular prism with a grid around its surface.
      Then you can look at the contour of the lines in the orthographic views, translate them into your perspective drawing, and fill in the rest of the details, completing your perspective drawing 🙂
      TL;DR (summary): divide your orthographic drawings into a grid, replicate the dimensions of that grid in perspective, and "copy" the structures and lines and proportions from the orthographic views onto the perspective grid.
      Does that help? I know my explanation was rather dense, so I'll be glad to clarify anything that wasn't clear.

      @@SyoDraws Great explanation, understood the process. Another question is, how to determine the proportion of a human figure in drawing w.r.t a large structure for example a building. In my country we have design exams for admission in design schools, in these exams a composition sketch is asked to draw, for example, draw a view of a room in which certain activity is happening which involves drawing human figure, their expression, body posture, gesture, interaction with the surroundings, at times one has to draw outdoor scene, for example scene of an urban park, children playing, adults walking or running etc. If you could make video on this.

    • @SyoDraws
      @SyoDraws Месяц назад

      @@lakra90110 to determine the proportions of the human figure in a drawing like that, you'd need to be comfortable with stationary human proportion (i.e., the proportions of a human body when standing still), and then compare those to the drawing you are making. There are different systems of human proportion. If you are using foreshortening in your drawings, i would recommend the "cranial units" system since it uses a relatively consistent unit (the "sphere" of the cranium) to measure the whole body. (The RUclips channel "Proko" has some great videos on this.)
      It also seems like you are asking how to use these proportions to draw human figures within buildings? If so, let me know, and I'll go more in depth if I can.
