LESSON NOTES
What's in Premium?
Learn to draw a foreshortened plane in perspective by eyeballing its proportions. In this lesson, we start by setting up a grid with vanishing points to establish the perspective. You'll see how to outline the basic proportions, add tapering to the plane's body, and accurately place features like the cockpit, tail, and wings. We cover techniques like using ellipses for drawing the cockpit and refining the drawing for a clean, realistic result.

Let me show you a demo on eyeballing proportions.
hmm Im having trouble drawing the second row of the grids. So I leave it with only one, and guess the second and third vanishing points instead
Hooray for another demo.
I guess my biggest problem is correcting mistakes. The way you were able to fix that back fin is what I envy the most. Took a look, corrected a couple lines and moved on. I would have spent 20 minutes erasing/redrawing/erasing/redrawing, gritting my teeth and pulling out tufts of hair in the process.... is there a membership fee to join the bald brotherhood?
Yep. Definitely going to have a bald spot. That back tail and wings T_T There's just so many lines you have to keep track of... doesn't help that my hand is shaking and after erasing a few dozen times there really is no hope of seeing anything. Time for another long walk. I'll try one more time for the day and then just play with something more simple.
@Marshall Vandruff you were killing me with that dull lead. I wanted to reach in the video and sharpen it. gave anxiety. 😂😂😂
I liked the grid nod to Tron. At first, I thought it was an accidental pop-up ad on Marshall's screen. The 1982 version is better.
Followed along loosely with the video and then tried to do the same with my subject.
Had to redraw the grid with a ruler though. And I needed more reference than just the ortho to complete the drawing.
