This is a very basic overview of how to get started with 5-point perspective by making a grid and plugging in details. #perspective #fisheyedrawing #wideangledrawing #povdrawing #paulheaston
i saw this guy's art on pinterest and was super fascinated on how to draw like him, so i searched up how to draw in a 5-point perspective and low and behold, the man himself!
How do you work out how to draw lines that don’t exactly fall on the grid, like if I were to draw a roof which is diagonally slanted, I obviously can’t just follow any of the curves or the lines radiating from the center.
This is such a good question and I plan to do a detailed video on how to deal with these problems soon. Basically, when I’m eyeballing it like this I try to imagine the angled or diagonal surface within a box on the grid. That way I can visualize where it meets the ground plane and where the diagonal is headed in the background, and draw a gently curved line that connects those points.
Yes, this is the only part I don’t understand. This works fine if everything is facing you directly, but if an object is rotated in relation to you then you can’t follow these guidelines…. @pheaston ?
After some thought on this - I think it's similar to 2pt perspective where the vanishing points will move along the eye level/horizon line. The converging lines will be curved. The curve is determined by the other vanishing point that is moving behind you (since each plane has a set of VP's).
I don’t get it, how do I know which of the five vanishing points the line will go to? What if my camera isn’t in the centre - ie - what if I want to draw a sparsely populated corridor at a Dutch angle in fisheye?
No its called fov pov means point of view meaning that you see the visuals from something fov means field of view meaning that you visualize ur surroundings Edit: sorry if iwas kinda nerdy there
