LESSON NOTES
What's in Premium?
I will show you how to draw simple shapes and a plane in perspective. We will explore one-point perspective as its own unique style rather than just a beginner step. It is a great tool for staging scenes clearly without camera distortion. I will explain how to set up two-point perspective with vanishing points far apart to keep your shapes looking natural. You will learn how the horizon line dictates your eye level. I will demonstrate how to place boxes and figures above, below, or right on that line. I also share a practical tip for drawing straighter lines and explain how to use shading directions to reinforce your perspective.

Using pencil would be better for me i guess,but the explanation is pritty gudd and I try to draw alongside to get some hand speed while drawing
A follow along study for this lesson. There are mistakes. I am really enjoying this course.

Hello, this is looking solid; nice line confidence! I would say look out for keeping your objects consistent with each other; if you were looking to make your figures recede evenly, the reason they got squashed was because your closest figure is actually lower in space than the ones in the back (since the front figure is standing on a shorter box). The figures in the back are hanging on the horizon line, but their legs are squished up compared to the front figure since they're higher up in space. Also consider making the proportions of the figures smaller as they recede. As you see, the figure in the front is the same width as the one in the back, which shouldn't be the case! All in all, you seem to be doing well; keep it up!
Very clear explanations, got a better understanding on these basics of perspective while listening and drawing along. Thank you !

Hey Moka! Thank you for submitting your exercise! Overall, you did a good job following the grid to place your characters and boxes in perspective. One thing I wanted to show you is how to cast the shadows of objects in the scene! The first step is to find your light source in the picture and draw a point directly under it called the 'Radiation Point', which is the point on the floor right under the light. Then draw a line from the radiation point to the base of your character, and draw a diagonal from the light to the top of your character. The line from the bottom of the character to the point where the diagonal intersects will be the length of the cast shadow. This is a very basic description of this technique, and I recommend you look more into it. Happy sketching!
