Two point perspective

Hello there.
I am once again making another perspective tutorial, but this
is 2 point perspective!
This should be easier to understand for most people,
since it uses less vanishing points.

Well lets start.
Today my example will be a street corner.

First, draw a vertical line.

Then draw 2 vanishing points either side of the line

Now, join the top and bottom of the horizontal line to the
vanishing points, as shown.

Of course, the street will end.
So, now we have to draw two horizontal lines either side,
like in the image below.

Erase those unwanted lines.
DO NOT WIPE OUT THE VANISHING POINTS.

I'm sure you can see the strret forming, but what are building without
features like windows and doors?

Now pay attention, we have to draw lines to where we want the top
and bottomn of the features to be, these lines are called
orthogonal lines.

Check my example below to see how to do them, I will draw
orthogonal lines in red.

1. Sperate
the street
into
sveral
buildings

2.Mark on
some points
to show the
tops of
features

3.Draw line
from the points
(this doesn't
need to be
exact they can
miss the points
a bit) to the
vanishing
point.

Now, using those lines as a guide, draw in the features.
See image below for help.

Also delete all of the
red lines.

Sure that's great, but what about the roofs?

So, extend the horizontal line in the
middle, then draw two lines to the
vanishing points.

Now, draw two horizontal lines where the street ends, like
below.

Now, erase the excess lines.
I'm sure you've got how to add things, so when you're done
doing that, colour it.

Pretty cool, huh?
Well thats all for now.
Have fun.

The End
