How to Draw 3-Point Perspective: Skyscraper Building

[@neezerleezer7661]

Thanks! This is useful since i'm trying to understand 3 point perspective. 😊

very nice! I'm not very good at 3-point persperctives, this is very helpful!

Thank you for your videos. Question: if one wanted to draw a figure closer to oneself than the building, yet still from the worm's eye perspective, would one still use parts of the same grid? For instance, if the figure was to the right of the building, facing the building, and much closer to the viewer than the building - but also to the right of the viewer's eye - would one use the same horizon line for his feet, and then use the left hand vanishing point angles to establish his relative scale (i.e., the height of his head as it would relate to his (much larger) size near us, on an angle in line with the height of a doorway of the building were he standing near it instead?) I believe that there would be foreshortening of his body (his head would appear much smaller than his feet, which would be closer to us)... but could one make use of the same grid in that way?

Hi Anastasia, Yes! The angle of a standing person would be equivalent to the vertical lines of the building, so there would be great distortion if they are not standing centrally. To draw a person in 3PP I would place them on the center vertical line, feet below the horizon line. There feet would be much bigger than their head, which might be quite tiny. The left and right VP's would be useful if there arms were outstretched towards us, the viewer, to show the foreshortening. 3PP is best for buildings, not people. When drawing people in perspective, imagine they are made of cuboides, cubes, of which each cube might have its own VP. Multi-point perspective is what we see all the time, but it is very complex to draw in that way. A building with a cube like structure is suited to linear perspective. Hope that helps, regards, Tom

[@ashutoshdube6560]

I am still confused with verticals lines

[@Circlelineartschool]

Hi Ashutosh, good question. 3PP is full of distortions. All vertical parallel lines will look like they would eventually meet at a single point straight above the building, the vanishing point, as in 3PP we are looking up, and that is also why receding parallel lines to the left go to the left vanishing point and receding parallel lines to the right go to the right vanishing point. So in 3PP there are 3 vanishing points, as we are looking in 3 directions at the same time. Hope that helps:)
