This is a work in progress. I initially posted it in the level 1 but it is better here (I deleted it there). In June I was in the long room in Trinity College in Dublin and was impressed. And it is a fantastic library for one point perspective. However it is my intention to add an arcade to it in the second hall. I scanned it to continue digitally in GIMP, because this drawing on paper is only on A5 paper and it was becoming too messy. So this is a work in progress... but the intention is the level 2 with the arcade in the back... When finished digitally I shall add it here, but it may not be in time for the critiques.

Deadline: Submit your assignment by 12/04/2023 for a chance to be featured in the next critique video!
For this project, we're stepping it up a notch. Instead of just drawing simple boxes, you'll be extruding complex shapes toward the vanishing point.
Watch the Level 1 Project: The instruction in the previous video apply to level 2 too.
Stick to Hard-Edged Shapes: Avoid things like blenders or toilets that have curves since that will lead to complex ellipse issues that we haven't learned yet. We're focusing on straight edges and corners here.
Pick a Theme Like an Arcade Room: This works great because arcade cabinets have different shapes but are generally boxy. Think of cabinets with unique profiles but all going straight back from there.
Use One-Point Perspective: This means all corners of your objects should lead to a single vanishing point.
Be Creative with Your Theme: The arcade room is just a suggestion.
Focus on Structure, Then Add Details: First, get your basic structure right. After that, add in details to make it look more real.
Have Fun and Experiment: The most important part is to enjoy and try out different things.
I am pretty happy with it. There is some inconsistency in the foreshortening of the right and left machines, though
I definitely notice a need to practice straight lines with this haha. I also enjoyed this one. Note the sink location is optimal lol
Goodness me, this one was a bit trickier. Placing another game case behind the front one was more difficult than I thought. It would probably help if things are drawn bigger. It was a challenge but I feel I really learned something. For instance my horizontal and vertical lines need some improvement.
My level 2 assignment has become a boulder room. We don't really have arcade places in the Netherlands (just a few), but some friends are really into bouldering, and those could be interesting shapes to try out.
The hardest parts are when I can't see how broad a piece is because there is another piece in front of it and I can't go directly parallel onward with my lines like in the left most obstacle. The one in the middle on the right side, close to the vanishing point was pretty hard and I doubt if it is correct.
But otherwise, I really had fun inventing such a place! And again, no ruler involved in the making of this drawing ;-)
I have tidied up my first version and aimed to get more precise one point perspective. I used freehand thrown lines first, the combination of thickening lines and sometimes the ruler. The main thing is I had plenty of thinking time and helpful comments from @Thoth. Best to move on to a similar task / assignment to practise perspective there.
The lines that run toward the back should all be directed (and, when extended, meet) at the vanishing point. If you take the very first object on the left, only the top line moves toward the vanishing point. The one underneath is parallel to it, so it ends up below the vanishing point--there is no foreshortening. And the five lines underneath don't go anywhere near the vanishing point. The perspective in the objects on the right looks much more convincing, I think.
I recently began learning about subdividing, so I decided to implement this technique to draw one side of the room at an arcade.

Great idea!
Hope I did it correct, I forced myself to only freehand and keep lines as clean as I could
Well, I finaly did this, wasnt so fun as some of the projects but I did those. I also did level 1 but my free licence on clip studio expired so i can't send this over here. :[
I decided to do level 2 this time because it sounded fun. First I drew it on paper without a ruler. Then finished it in procreate. It needs more machines maybe.
Hmmm. I just watched the demo. I see I limited myself a lot by trying to draw the walls first.
Gave level 2 a go. For some reason I pushed everything towards the top of the page. 😓

A high horizon line makes it look like we are sitting on the floor.
Great job!
Since I did the entire sketch and most of the linework without a ruler, I don't think it's 100% accurate, but I think it's the best I can do by eye at the moment.
