Asked for help
I know that since i put the VPs within the boxed borders, that the perspective would get super distorted, i was ready for that! Whats confusing me is why I'm having trouble with the lower angles in particular, applying the same logic as the higher angles just winds up putting the viewer under the room in space instead of giving them the view an ant would. Is it the small workspace? Is my logic flawed? What am i doing wrong here?
("open original image" with the 3 dots enlarges the image quite a bit if you're having trouble seeing)

Hello, this is just my personal opinion: if we look up, it is actually a three-point perspective, because the vertical direction, that is, the Y axis, is no longer completely parallel. Considering the height of the observer, it is difficult to observe the ground close to us, because the horizon (EL) at this time is higher than the ground. Therefore, when constructing the scene, should consider where you are and how you observe. If the horizon is consistent with the horizon, then you need to consider whether the scene can enter the visual cone (COV), because the range of human eye observation is limited. If it is only a two-point perspective, then you can put any object on the right, as long as the vanishing point of the object itself is on the horizon, but whether the human eye can observe it needs to be considered separately.

Drawing gesture from imagination is very difficult, and I often draw the gesture which I have seen before.
Don't be hard on yourself - there's a quote about writing that is also true for drawing - "you can't get out of a brain what isn't there to begin with." It would be almost impossible to draw a pose you've never seen before since our "imagination" is really just a synthesis of all we've seen and experienced up to this point. If you feel like you're always drawing the same poses, try changing up the content you're observing. Examples - if you love classic art, watch videos of modern dance. If you love superhero movies or comics, try fashion catalogues. Creativity is really just about connecting dots, so make sure you have some varied, interesting dots to connect! Good luck :)
Such a cool idea to put the letters into an environment. And I like how they're not all face-on but sideways, makes it more dynamic. Though, now that I think of it, wouldn't that put the letters in two point perspective?

I only remember the 8-head ratio, and I don't understand the 7.5-head ratio commonly used for female.
