Hi Guys

Been trying to get this image just right but not the best at this kinda stuff and I'm sure the perspective is messed up!
Please have a look at the image and see if you can help if you're any good at this stuff
You can even download it and edit it if you are really kind - that would deffo deserve a thumbs up :D
But please don't use the image for anything else but to help me as it took ages to do and compile

Many thanks

Max

    the line needs to be the same as the fence

    To create a correct perspective all the lines that are running across the picture have to be angled out from a single point to the left of the picture. This is called the disappearing point. By taking the line at the front of the road and the bottom edge of the fence you can continue them on to where they meet, and then angle the other lines from that point and this will fix things.

    Hope that helps. Kipper

    That's very helpful thank you and quick reply...seems so obvious now why I didn't do art for GCSE!

    I'll give that a go

    @old_kipper - From the image, it kinda looks like he wants to go for isometric art instead of having a disappearing point. - I may be wrong though.

    Yeah if you're going for an isometric/parallel projection look (no vanishing point, things don't get smaller as they move further back) then make sure that all lines going in the same direction are parallel. So if you grab the fence and move it over to the road they will line up perfectly, etc.

    As a general (but definitely not exclusive), if you're working with isometric art, set it at a 30 degree angle.

    I wasn't sure what perspective he was after, after reading the later comments and looking at the drawing I am still not sure. ??????????????

    To be honest I didn't have a clue, I just wanted it to look better...but after messing around with my image I see now it must be just to have the road lines parallel with the fence.

    Thanks to all again and just to note I have now removed the image as there is no need to keep it up to all :D
