Draw Minecraft with X and X-ray Perspective Techniques

Рет қаралды 50,711

Күн бұрын

In this lesson, I'll show you two important perspective techniques: the X and the X-ray.
The X technique helps you find the midpoint of rectangles, which is key for keeping things in proportion especially when you have repeating sections. The X-ray technique is great for dealing with parts of your drawing you can't see. I'll walk you through drawing Steve from Minecraft so you can see how these techniques help you construct complex structures in 2-point perspective.
For all the full lessons, assignments, demos, and critique videos, check out the Drawing Basics course at proko.com/drawing

There is something that I noticed while watching this: When you had the center point of the torso and wanted to estimate the center of the X to determine the width of the first arm, the center of the X should be determined using the conversion point. That's because the line connecting the two center points would sit in 3D space parallel to the shoulders and would therefore go towards the (right) conversion point too. In the demonstrated case, it's not that grave because it's close enough to the horizon but I can imagine that the resulting box would probably come out wonky if it was further away from the horizon. (The resulting vertical line would probably not be vertical anymore.)

Fun fact: Steve's body type is actually practically composed of 4x4 pixel cubes, each limb is a stack of 3 cubes, the torso is two stacks next to eachother, and the head is a 2x2x2 of said cubes centered on top of the torso For the thin arm style bodies you just shave off one pixel on the side of each arm

@marcusvarga7863 3 ай бұрын

I have a important question. At 1:42, you mentioned for simplicity's sake, you'll have 2 obvious vanishing points, does that mean that usually good artists would draw with a vanishing point off the page? Thanks for reading!

@ProkoTV 3 ай бұрын

It's not necessarily "good" or "bad". But generally, it's considered more visually pleasing or realistic to have a point that's further out of the composition.

@sleeper6548 3 ай бұрын

Are you going to do something like rotating objects in perspective as well? I have watched some videos about perspective by other people but I didn't quite get the part where they rotate an object with respect to its surrounding

@ProkoTV 3 ай бұрын

Absolutely! Each Drawing Basics perspective lesson builds on the last so we're still only part way through going over all of it. Soon!

You don't really need 2 lines after the first X. You just need to run 1 line from 1 corner through the center of the opposing line. btw why not call them the Pro-Community? Get it ;)

Ha man What's Good or best mechanical pencil for Drawing ?? Or i just keep useing normal Drawing pencil .

@ProkoTV 3 ай бұрын

Both are good for different things! If you want line weight variation, a mechanical pencil won't do much of that. But if you're still learning, just use whatever pencil is handy for a while!
