Define Cynical Fan Forums

Since I panicked and got up at 11:00pm to check my e-mail for homework notices, I wanted to make it worth the time I wasted getting up and finding out there was nothing to worry about. I realized that I never drew anything in an extremely forced and foreshortened perspective and wanted to see how I can do it instinctively. Apparently my gut instincts aren't up to the challenge...




What I need to do is establish the perspective by identifying the horizon line, vanishing points, and 3 point linear perspective. Once I get the points identified I can draw a reference square that will outline the boundary where the character will reside. I then use perspective when creating a stick figure inside the prism and then I gesture draw it and then cloth/draw the figure within the prism. And there you have it, a character that 100% obeys perspective and just looks plain cool. The extreme foreshortening of the character makes for an interesting composition... as long as I utilize the Design Elements and Principles to strengthen my scene

Must be sure that the balance of the scene is interesting as well as emphasize the point... blegh, you guys don't need to know this complicated design stuff just yet. Just keep in mind that I often have to keep these in mind from now on.

That's a pretty cool drawing! I can tell that you are really devoted to becoming a better artist!


Are you feeding whatever that is a cookie?

See, that is awesome. I can't draw those sorts of perspectives, and I can't be bothered learning how to.

But kudos on a kickass pic dude, can't wait to see it finished!

What Rooster said. Very nice, way better than I could do.

Cooooooooooookie crisp! The Bocaj likes. I've always had a fondness for the elongated arm majigger.

*steals the cookie and eats it*

I await your completion of this one.

This one won't be finished because I have a better one for tomorrow... Tomorrow is a very special day. And on that day I have a big surprise for Define "Cynical" fan artists.

Should any of us be scared?

Shh, you don't have to yell... *puts some wax back in his ears*

Oh! *Zips Mouth Shut*

*unzips the mouth* Talking is fine, though...

*rezips the mouth* I just like the zzzzzzzzrp noise the zipper makes.

Is this the "All Your Panels" comic I have been hearing about?

Uh, no that is has been removed from memory. This is something that everyone can use.
