Intuitive Perspective and Learning Anatomy - Stanswers #4

comments 3

In perspective, the wheel (eg its major axis) is perpendicular to the axle (the rotation axis): that's actually not true! I know this practical way of positionning a circle in perpective can be found in many books and tutorials, but it is simply mathematically incorrect. I'd be interested if anyone knew why this is often said? I'll admit it can give a first guess (and maybe that's fine: in the end it's the believability that counts) but the steeper the angle between the axle and the horizon line, the higher the the error.
