Perspective Drawing by Hand Continued - Hand or computer drawing?

(to go straight to computer aided perspectives)

Step 6

Count back the lines from the front edge to determine the depth of the room (in this case10). At the end of the end of the 10th tile is the end of the room (confirm this by counting back on the plan.

Draw the two vertical lines on the intersection of the horizontal line for tile 10 and the vanishing (angled) lines of the each other rooms. Now draw the horizontal ceiling line across. You have now created the box of the room.

Step 7

Draw the ends of the furniture (cabinetry) and project these lines back toward the vanishing point to create the outlines of the furniture. Draw the base of the cabinets (if you haven’t already done so as well).

Where the lines intersect the vertical lines are drawn. The height of the vertical lines is determined by using the information in drawn in step 2 and transposing it along the front each of the room back to be vanishing point.

 

you have now created the box of the room.

Step 6

The perspective drawing is starting to take shape

Step 7

Step 8

You can now start adding the detail and rendering your drawing. Note for this exercise we are not attempting to draw in exact perspective so the heights and sizes of door handles, the size of graining etc doesn’t have to be exact. Photocopy this final layout and practice your rendering technique.

You now have the framework to draw in some detail.

Now compare this to computer aided perspectives, it is so much easier!
