To check it - you can use a Cone Of Vision.

Yeah as far as I can tell perspective distorion boils down to the size of your subjects and how far you are away from them.

Scenes of even moderate complexity are often just too much to break down into vanishing points–there might be dozens for a single object!

But when it comes to understanding perspective distortion, I'm following the "draw a fuck-ton of boxes and see what works and what doesn't" method.

Yeah that stuff was golden - I was trying to work out how far apart to have my vanishing points.

Oh, wow, Johnny left a rather large info-dump on the cone of vision on your SB, I'm gonna have to read some of this.

The boxes are going well. I still haven't entirely grasped how 3d space works (but how could I expect to so soon?) but I'm seeing progress!

@Artloader I think I'm going to draw that and fulfill my duty to Rule 34. XD

Srsly, you'd think there is no way to make porn out of that. But they've up and done it.

Daleks are some bad guys from Dr. Who. I don't watch the series myself, but they apparently look like trash cans with toilet plungers for arms.

There's probably porn of the Millennium Falcon growing a penis and pounding the starship Enterprise hard in the hanger bay. :D

Wow, just speaking of perverted stuff just somehow summoned you out of nowhere.

Don't bother trying to find exceptions. I've already found Dalek porn. Seriously, if it exists, there is porn of it on the interwebs.

The rules of the internet says, if an ip exists, expect a perverted version of it scattered around the net.

02 Jul 02:05

That's a different genre of entertainment?
