added comment inSolving Perspective Problems with the Picture Plane
really useful, seems that it is necessary to determine the position of observation

Great work! Yeah, I can’t wait to learn about the cone of vision from Marshall rather than than the books because anything outside of it seems to be very distorted
This answers so many questions about right angles, like why one VP is often out of the image, or why the line moves so fast when it’s close to the centre then really slowly when it’s far away. Rn I think I’m putting the viewer too close in the 2-3 min quicksketches due to speed but I want to be able to do some of this mentally to help with cuboid intuition

Asked for help
This doesn’t look nice as it’s my first attempt at this kind of object, but I learned so much. By 1 minute I could visualize the attachment points at the bottom moving in a circle and how the front are facing us but the back ones are turned away. I wish the output looked a little nicer but I’m still glad I chose the chandelier because it did something weird to my brain XD
Not nice??? This looks great!! 👏🏼
(and thanks for the warm welcome in the Yt chat 🧸)

Is that an architectural 3D model of the basilica sancti petri my beloved

@Sita Rabeling and @Blondie the good So I found this 3D model which can be simplified into boxes and rounded forms, exactly like the anvil/arrows we did. It also provides the ground plane making the hl obvious: https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/florence-cathedralgothicfioremapscanduomo-dd1bff8c880d4c22ad1f7bd4117c39f5 vertigo allowing I was thinking of doing a personal mini challenge of 5 very simplified views if you want to join me? :3 (anyone else who likes the idea is also welcome!)
Wishing the best for Peter, yesterday he posted on his channel about his struggles with Miller Fishers syndrome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zDFWX3v6qUY
Hope his path to recovery is a smooth one.

I am very glad to see this video because I am using what we learned so far to tackle my weakness, which is the skull in perspective, from reference and imagination. You mentioned drawing what we love and I don’t love anvils and I don’t love rooms, so skulls, figures and churches it is😭. I couldn’t get the cranium in perspective when I started out last year so I’ve been dodging them since. I didn’t know what axes were, to be fair, or how to control them. Now I can direct it more and it is fun learning how different shapes shift as the angle changes, sometimes in ways that you don’t expect (looking at you, the hellspawn form known as “eye sockets”). Anyway these were warmups, but I want to do 50 skulls like we did with the rooms, hopefully I can get them a little closer to a standard I’ll accept for now :3
Have you tried tom-fox's anatomy book!,his stuff helps to break anatomy down into simple chiseled forms and how to put them inside boxes(it's like simpllified process that kim-jung-gi used) and tom was once marshall's student too if i rememeber correctly!
he did a lot of skull simplications too that can help you out👍

ANGUISH DE PROFUNDIS HELP ME, OOOH MARSHALL!!!
when a vp is pf the page, or very very out of the page, what "rules" do you use to eyeball a grid from it in a credible manner? draw the lines of the grid from the edge of an ellipse??? this drives me MAD!!!🤪🤪🤪❤️❤️❤️
A bit more measured perhaps (though it can be quick and eyeballed) but if you happen to have Stan’s beginner course he shows one way to do this. I think it’s from Andrew loomis. Start with a horizon level and with two lines towards the two VP directions, then you divide the page border into equal spaces and draw the rest of the lines. This ensures they all go to the same VP even if you don’t take the lines all the way:

Followed Lin’s idea to use the ortho. That helped in drawing along with the video, although I mostly did rely on the instructions.
It’s already hard enough to find the right grid, the proportions, all of it.
It not perfect, but still… Ta-daaah…. :-)
Very nice, very clean! Yeah, I ran into the same hurdle, lots of things to watch out for simultaneously. Sometimes a proportion is right but I converge the lines a little off. Or vice versa.
They’ll lessen and demand less brainpower as we progress with the course and put more into the intuition slot I imagine. :3
