Description Aaand real perspective attempt #1!
...N-Not so grand, yeah. Sorry this's so rough, I kind of only figured out how to do straight lines just as I was finishing up with the page... yeah. =w=;; And gosh, I still half-assed a lot of this... those cars are way too small, and, just... yeah. The comic also feels pretty jumpy and'll probably stay that way... I haven't figured out how to make everything flow that well yet.
Hope the grayscale shading is okay; I really dislike coloring my linearts lately, and it all looks really mediocre at best... we'll have to see. Anyway, update for now. School's back in session, but I hope to have time (between class homework, this, and sprite/VG design) to work more on this comic!

Aww, thank you very much for the +fav and the comment! And hey, you won't know until you give it a shot! Perspective's kind of fun to work with once you get the hang of it, too~ :>

Yeah, I can imagine ^^ I just did a straight 7 perspective drawings with greyscale coloring, and even though I was only tracing to digitalize, it was really insightful ^^

Hot dang this is gorgeous. I love the inherent sketchiness of the background - gives the impression he just isn't focusing on much of anything at all. So freaking gorgeous, man. The aesthetic is coming off wonderfully. C:

That and good god that boy looks like he's moving how the heck do you do that. D| Just the sway of his hips and the little upturn of his foot - GAAAH LOOKS SO RIGHT DANGIT.

Myerr I love the way you set up pages. <:

SWAY OF HIS HIPS FFFFFFFFF YOU.
And, maan, I wanna re-do this comic traditionally now! I'm actually kind of annoyed with the sketchiness, since I don't quite have a really good feel for it (and am unsure if my OCD will ever let me). :<

You're only on the second page and already I'm starting to wonder why the hell you think you need to improve your perspective. I mean this page is a blast of perspective brilliance!

Really. This page makes me want to improve my perspective.

Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaw, no freakin' way G, your perspective is what I look up to! Particularly those old background drafts you did~ holy hell, those were genius. D:

The-G In reply to Laitma [2010-02-17 09:34:04 +0000 UTC]

Yeah...but those were done with rulers and measurements and vanishing points. The stuff you're supposed to use.

And and and of course then there's Raph, adorable little bastard~ (and of course you let us see his butt.

I think your perspective's okay, though those cars look a wee bit small compared to the sidewalk...looks like you already knew that though. Still, this is such a cool angle.

draconianspirit [2010-02-12 04:30:06 +0000 UTC]

your perspective is beautiful!...

I see so many oppertunities here though, where you could REALLY play with lighting...and I think it would somehow add to the fact that he doesn't have a shadow...like..with the sun setting or something? It would be really cool to see shadows from the street poles.

But oh by the gods! His ass! Love it!

Laitma In reply to draconianspirit [2010-02-12 16:19:53 +0000 UTC]

LOL baaaaw, thank you muchly!
This is hard to shade since it HAS so little shading inherently involved, but yeah, for a later scene maybe I could play with the lighting~ I've got a little planned already, for indoors... we'll have to see how it goes.
Thank you! <3

Tacianja [2010-02-12 03:47:23 +0000 UTC]

the cars a little small but perspective on those beast is difficult so dont sweat it

PhantomTeacup [2010-02-12 00:47:35 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm. Aside from the cars, the building looks a little too short - unless he's abnormally tall. The buildings farther back all look great.

I look forward to seeing more! 8D

PhantomTeacup In reply to Laitma [2010-02-12 09:21:38 +0000 UTC]

yes, that one. It's mostly the height of the molding. usually that's about the level the cieling would be inside the building.

47ness [2010-02-11 22:44:13 +0000 UTC]

One of the things you can do to make the cars the correct size is to lightly measure in the height of an imaginary car right next to your protagonist dude. Then, from that height, draw a line back into the vanishing point. The tops of the other cars will also touch that line.

That said, you got all the right basis down. Keep it up~!

Laitma In reply to 47ness [2010-02-12 00:28:19 +0000 UTC]

Ah, I see! Man, I should've thought of that, it makes so much sense~
Thank you very much! I'll try to keep it in mind in the future and apply it soon; I just need to tell myself to stop being so damn lazy about it! >w<

true true the cars were small, but since uve mentioned that already XD
I think you did really well on the perspective!
And still loving the sketchyness,
fits really well with the theme o.o
I think o.o (there is a theme right? im not imagining things *A* )
And the grayscale shading fits perfectly with everything!

Thank you! And, but... the point to the story was kind of to have a white sky? Do you know what I'm referring to, those overcast days...? I know it looks strange, but I was also hoping that it could work with the theme of the story and the mood I want to bring out?
