Description Check out the Exercise and Download the Practice Worksheet HERE

This exercise is best completed after watching the “Building a Box ” and “1 Point vs 2 Point Building Boxes ”  included in the “Perspective Course “.

Essentially, challenge your perspective knowledge and create 8 boxes in 2 point perspective. 

When working in perspective, it’s best to understand that “boxes” or “blocks” are essential to putting objects into a 3 dimensional space. Sometimes when working without perspective guidelines when creating illustrations, some objects may look a bit off. Now while perspective can be measured to the complete accuracy of architecture, we are going to keep it a bit simple. For this exercise, build 8 varied sized blocks that sit in a 3-dimensional space with 2-point perspective. 

The upper box is an example I have laid out, and if you wish draw in the perspective lines to see where I placed in my vanishing points. In the lower half of the exercise sheet, create your own scene with 8 blocks in 2 point perspective.

This doesn't include light source and shadow vanishing points does it?

vpoints exist they´re not marked but in this image there are 2 vpoints 1 on the left and oneon the right

oh yes I know that it's just I've been assigned to map my shadows using the light source and shadow vanishing point and I have become utterly confused by it and have no idea how to do it properly. See every video I have seen (except for one) so far has to so with boxes or things with an exterior. I've been trying to map my shadows using the light source an vanishing points and I have frustrated myself to no end.
