Lets practice

Lets practice

1.  Draw a horizon line across your paper.
2.  Place two vanishing points far apart on the horizon line (left and right).
3.  Draw a vertical line between the vanishing points – this is the front corner of your house.
4.  Connect the top and bottom of the vertical line to both vanishing points to form the sides.
5.  Draw vertical lines to define the left and right edges of the house.
6.  Add a roof (optional): draw a peak above the center line and connect it to the sides using perspective.
7.  Draw windows and doors using perspective: horizontal lines go to vanishing points, vertical lines stay straight.
8.  Erase guidelines and add final details, shading, or color.
   
   

Your own futuristic city

Your city needs:

• 2 Vanishing points
  
• Clear horizon
• Think about what type of view your city has. (Birds eye, frogs eye, humans eye)
• Futuristic buildings in different heights and shapes (you can find inspiration on your Chromebook during the first half of this lesson)
• Add details by adding windows, roads, signs, flying objects etc. Be creative.

• Draw your city in pencil and use a ruler (think about the different pencil types (H-HB)
