Description
I played with a ruler and these lovely 2 points here. (Ignore the 3rd in the middle
)Little explanations:
First I drew a horizontal line (red). Then I just picked up 2 (blue) spots where to draw little points. After that I started to draw straight lines away from the points. It doesn't even matter where you draw them, the only "must" is that they have to start from the point, going straightly away from it. After drawing "enough" lines I started to draw vertical lines (squares' height lines, the pink ones)
After all that, the lines coming from the points creates all other lines needed to draw a square. (see the blue lines, they're coming from the points)
Eh.. not too simple?
Simple isn't it
(done year 2000)

Nice perspective on it. Vanishing points masterfully done.

Very good idea for a tut Pika.
Maybe you can try to make an add-on with the three-points perspective technic, can't you?
I like perspective work, EVERY perspective work !
Maybe will I upload some of them for illustration with a link to your tut... maybe
Hey everybody, try it ! It's really easy to get result and pretty fast

Ehheh.. I don't know if I'll do 3-point pic
It's just that.. it won't work except they all are in the same horizontal line. Doiii xD
And I think you're some kind of a perspective freak? 
If you're gonna do what you said, I'd appreciate it a lot ^_^

And a link to your tut', of course

My art teacher at secondary school (ylΓ€ aste) was very, very good. He taught all kind of a things to us. This was one of the things he taught. Then there was human anatomy and um.. The most precious thing he ever said, which I remember clearly:
"It you're doing art, do it well. Rather tendovaginitis (jΓ€nnetupintulehdus) than a badly made art. ^_______^ and that he said when I was complaining that my wrist hurts when I was coloring one pic with chalk. (sellasii..vahaliituja

Nice clear explanation and illustration! And of course the same process can be used for any scene since you can just create 'bounding boxes' for irregular objects
Although the cutest thing has to be how you're calling them escaping points. Generally in English they're known as vanishing points, but I think I like 'escaping' better ^_^

Thaaaaaaaanks!!!! :hug : hug: 
And you're correct about the irregular stuff ^_^ That's the way the world works : D Everything has directions X3

Cool, all nice and neat and in perspective. Isn't it time-consuming though?
