Time to prepare for this tutorial: 1 year
Time to make the tutorial: 6 hours
Purpose of the tutorial: To help beginners, or people who struggle with drawing perspectives to get a start in apply it.
I feel quite accomplished being able to finish this tutorial now. I promised this since last year, it was a challenge to even start to make it.
Honestly, I don't feel I am good at perspective, but it seems like I am good enough to teach some basics.
There are plenty of tutorials on perspectives out there, but not everyone can apply the technquies after they learn them.
I hope this tutorial will help out the majority of the artists who started drawing with characters first like I am.
Other recommanded tutorials: From easy to hard

There's really no advanced perspective, just more or less understanding of the same subject.
I think this: [link]
is a pretty complete book.

I know I'm pretty late on replying to this (4 years late....), but I just can't something without commenting. I'm weird like that.
I just want to say that this will be a big help for me (this and the other pages to the tutorial) so, thank you very much for creating this!
Now to study vigorously....

Fantastic series of tutorials. I love how you highlight the fact that perspective isn't a technique or invention, it's the way we see!
What happened to part 4 though?

I could almost cry trying to draw actual scenery like this....I guess I should really take it one step at a time. A cube box today, the empire state building tommorow!
It would be so much easier if I was being taught this in an art class or something T_T

mayshing In reply to Particularlyme [2008-07-10 15:03:29 +0000 UTC]
art class doesn't always make it easy... I had a good perspective prof that confused the hell out of everyone. ;D He was trying to be simple too. T_T
Check out the tutorials i listed at the bottom of the tutorial, they are the basics and included step by steps I didn't mention.

Particularlyme In reply to mayshing [2008-07-11 02:16:29 +0000 UTC]
Actually I have...I really liked the Introduction to Perspective. I tried out the first two in that one so far and took notes in another other. I guess ultimately...I should by a book. A few pages to me in any of those websites just don't give me a good grasp on perspective. Time to go shopping!
You can tell I was never really trained in this can't you...

mayshing In reply to Particularlyme [2008-07-11 17:20:56 +0000 UTC]
so was I. I studied perspective for 1.5 years with sites and books and still missed some stuff until I took a perspective class.... but I did much better in the perspective class because I did my own homework.

Hi! Thank you for the lovely tutorial - it certainly makes some points I will use.
Thing is - I find the whole thing a bit confusing. The structure is kind of weird and sometimes you don't say what we are learning (it took me 15 minutes to figure out what parts 5 & 6 are for), making the whole thing... well, ineffective.
Maybe if you could add more exposition to the whole thing and just settle for one text box per-line (so to say)?

mayshing In reply to dawnofminstrel [2008-01-03 18:07:36 +0000 UTC]
I know what you are saying.
Perspective is tough to understand without a lot of examples, done step by step, which takes a mad amount of time to do.
That's what I am thinking to work on right now.
Mean while, please check out other excellent tutorials I have listed below in my describtion.

I didn't explain the forth one as much, since there's another tutorial that has done a great job explaining it. (Which I included in my describtions.) Anyway, glad you found it helpful still.
