Building! 2pt Perspective!

Okay I didn't particularly like this project personally! I hated buildings and the 2pt perspective! I really really struggled with this project and it shows in my final piece and prep sketches! This is one I will definitely be re-doing over Christmas as practice! In week 3 we started learning about 2pt perspective and how it works on the horizon line and how it has two vanishing points for either side of the building etc. etc. I don't know why I struggled so much. I knew all this before it was just putting it into practise! But every time I put my pencil on paper I just couldn't seem to do it! A lot of the time the vanishing points on the horizon line were wrong and that it made the building to squashed or too long and I hadn't made the building in proportion to my vanishing points! Sometimes where it starts above the horizon line I had it too high or too low! It became quite frustrating and started to fall behind! But I managed to pick it back up and end up with a few prep sketches and a final piece!

My final piece was okay. It was not brilliant and wish I could change it a lot! I am planning on doing a new building anyway! But for now I shall pick out the positive and negatives! The positives are that I managed to get it finished. It wasn't fully rendered but I wanted to aim for a more perspective look on the building, so it was more of a technical drawing rather then a fully rendered one! I found it really difficult to actually get all the perspective of the building correct and in the end it ended up being pretty poorly done! This is one I am doing AGAIN!
