Perspective Drawing 13 - How To Construct Inclined Planes In Perspective

Second

Great vids

I just can’t get enough of this series. This is like a pro level class you’d find on the internet you would have to pay for. I’m so thankful for all your help and that you are offering for free

Eyyyyy 18th vieww

This is exactly what I needed

First off wanted to say THANK YOU for all the time and effort you put in to your videos. They're definitely a reflection of your abilities as an artist and you understanding of the subjects.
My question is about drawing things that curve, in perspective. How would one, for example, draw a spiral or even a simple curving staircase? Once again thanks for all the information.

Very informational, especially how you did the stairs👍

Incredible skills

I think your architecture is showing...and it’s awesome

Gg nice dan u got 0 dislikes!

Dan, your great, but...







I dont understand anything






Also am i the only one who really dosnt understand here!?

Nah i prefer freestyling but still very informative but not for me cuz my brain is too slow for this like.. just imaging your playing minecraft with a super gaming pc and im playing it on an Intel atom processor with windows 7 and just enough storage to even download the game


Yeah

Really impressive work! I started following you a month ago maybe. I'd like to ask (and this may have been addressed in a previous video) how are you so confident in your vertical and horizontal lines? they are flawless, and yet you don't appear to be using a T square. Is it just practice over time or are you referencing the grid lines underneath?

Wow, your content only gets better!

I realised I don't need Scott Robertson's book for perspective because I have you 😂 still, I want to buy that book someday

Thanks!

Why the other videos are private? :(

Wow nice content so informative, love it, new friend here support ..

Hi Dan, can we know which mic are you using for recording your videos ??
Thank you

Very clear explanation 👍 can you show us a spiral staircase in perspective...

So, will inclined planes always have their own vanishing point?

Its not easy to attract people to see our artworks ,but you are doing great . Your video about elipses helped me alot ,THANKS.😊

I’m lost 😂😂

sorry to interrupt , but can you shoe the perspective line. I just following your drawing in the video but suddenly ask my self why would you put it then later on you draw other sadly i couldn't follow.

“Wait, it’s all vanishing points?”
“Always has been.”

Love your work, but I have a question. I'm new to all of this, but I think I spotted a mistake in the box/lid example and I want to confirm.

You made an ellipse based on a perspective of a plane that was 2x the height of the box.

However, the box appears to be much deeper than it is tall, meaning that shouldn't you have based the ellipse on a plane of 2x the DEPTH, not the height of the box?

I think this example accidentally tracked the path of the lid, if it started out the depth of the box, but changed to the height of the box as it opens. (Since you reflected the box vertically)

Am I wrong about this?

I think you should have created a square in perspective based on the depth of the box, not just the vertical reflection of the side of the box.

The lid should trace a circle, with the center at the hinge, since the lid doesn't ever change sizes.

I'm just trying to make sure I'm understanding all of this properly.

If I'm wrong, please let me know.

🙏

what size paper you use?

Hi,
first of all my compliments and thank you for your videos. They're very informative and useful to learn, refresh or dig perspective. I studied it at school and I have no problem with drawing a perspective (at least a 2pp) from orthogonal projections, but I like the way you do that freely. There are however a couple of things that should be pointed out. The first is that you shouldn't call them ellipses since, mathematically, an ellipse has two axes of symmetry whereas a circle in perspective has only one. I think they are better called ovals. The other and most important thing, related to this video, is that the construction of the oval as a guide for the flipping lit is a little misleading. The edge of a surface rotating around a side is like a radius describing a circumference. So, the guide should be a circle in perspective. Since your box side sizes are different and you're using them to construct the oval, your lit is describing an ellipse (which perspectically is represented by the oval you constructed), i.e. its lenght is going to be shortened over the first part of the rotation and then stretched again until it's flipped around 180 degrees. You will clearly see it if you flip the lit down: it will change its size to that of the height of the box, which is clearly shorter than the depth. The flatter the box, the greater the distortion, the wronger the result. This is not my language, so I hope I made myself clear.

i never expected to find a subject as boring-looking as perspective drawing this fun

the box which he draws before drawing the stairs by using the dots is the orthographic projection of the stairs.

Kuch ni samajh aya

Thanks you so much.

Note: I still dont get it

Extremely valuable information. Thank you

Isn't that ellipse incorrect? Like not off but incorrect. The long axis must be perpendicular to the line running through the ellipse center and the right vanishing point 🤔
Otherwise, the "lid" is shrinking as you flip it back ))

Hello! First of all, thank you for this.

I have question. If I'm going to do this in 3 point perspective, is this approach still applicable or there will be changes like adding a new perspective point for the inclined line/s? Thank you and subbed.

I’m confused about where to convergence of the lid, is it always to the left and never to the right?

Great tutorials, but the teaching speed is too fast

I'm going to start saying I went to Beardshaw University, your content is amazing man.

I did not understand why the lid traces an ellipse which means it would get shorter and then longer again. Can anyone explain how to determine the path of the lid?

I'm going to re-re-watch this because I'm getting lost in the stairs section of the video, particularly when you finish the first flight of steps. After that it's just TMI and my brain is slow 😞

It's very difficult, I didn't understand anything. 😢

Hi,
I am struggling with a small concept. I want to draw a staircase at a 45degree inclined plane. So the height of the staircase should be equal to the protrusion of the staircase. I am unable to figure out how to draw it at a 45 degree angle (essentially the vertical and horizontal lengths being the same).

Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Awesome video ❤🎉, Question what if the Vanishing points are off the page and you need to draw in a pitched roof how will you go about constructing the inclined planes ,would you just estimate where the vp is and go on from there or is there another um technique ?

minha dívida sempre foi como encontrar o ponto da parte inclinada...

Bruhhh, you made me learn fast about perspectives, thank you thank you so much

I know this is old, but I still think that it's worth pointing out for the benefit of anyone still watching these, that you used the wrong axis to create the ellipse for the hinges in your first example, which makes the lid look like it's getting shorter the more vertical it becomes. You used the height of the box (y) when you should've used the length of the lid (x) to determine the vertical length of the ellipse.

Other than that a great tutorial.

Ive watched so many videos on perspective but I love how you communicate the process so concisely. It makes it feel like skill is attainable now.

Thanks a lot 🙏⚘️

You are wonderful ⚘️

Thank you
