I can do normal perspective lines for buildings that are the same shape and are square or rectangular but I really have trouble with obscure shaped buildings like in fantasy worlds or alien buildings. I also have trouble with natural landscape like mountains and forests.
I have a few questions. 1:What do you do when your background perspective doesn't seem to match with your character's perspective? 2: what about fish eye lends perspective? 3: What if you have to use more than 2 point perspective? Do the same rules carry on to that too?
Perspective...the never ending story.I actually enjoy perspective /backrounds(even when I mess them frequently kinda...;)) When it comes in "3D" (or better 2D pretending being 3D) I guess the hardest parts are bodys and very small objects because the smaller something is the more it can look kinda off- just millimeters to big/ small can do a difference to look believable or off. Do you have some you enjoy most in doing comics/webtoons or some you hat with passion? I enjoy telling the story with pictures in general (thumbing) The most meditative part (even when I suck ) is inking and I hate- I mean I actually HATE flatting or in general digital coloring (what is kinda odd since it is what I did for living ) Thank you for doing so nice and competent videos. I think your channel need much more attention!!!!
'drawing is not easy, and if it feels hard then you're probably doing it right' ooft! i felt that. love that tagline dude! Amazing content as always! keep it flowing!!
I wish I found your channel sooner, in just watching two of your videos I already feel like I've learnt more than what I did from doing three years doing a university art course haha
This is so helpful, I’m planning a short comic and it’s very daunting to think how much art fundamentals I need to learn to draw what I’m imagining especially with backgrounds and places. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!!!!!
Thank you for making this video! Although many of the tips you discussed in this video were tips I was already aware of, you actually worded them in a way that made sense to me! So thank you for helping me make sense of perspective! :D
Always so helpful. You went kind of fast on how to make equal size objects (you have another video on that too I think); either way, I'll save this and watch it again to take notes 🙂 Also, when drawing a character in perspective (low and/or high angle...even the side in this video), do you use simple shapes to flesh out the character form? That's a difficult angle to draw.
great video! would love more breakdown on rotating objects in perspective, in complex scenes most things are not perfectly aligned towards the vanishing point - how to easily approach it, especially if the shapes are more organic like landscapes without buildings with no clear geometric shape to envelop it in.
2:11 is something i have never heard anyone mention like. EVER. i struggle The Most with perspective because i am neurodivergent in a way that makes it just. even less intuitive, i think. but this knowledge may have just changed my whole life LOL
this vid is awesomely informative! the using of human height and use of the box to draw in perspective is the answer i was looking for. how about for part2, is how to draw angled/rotated objects but still in perspective? personally, i'm confused how to do those. thank you very much for this vid!
@@walterostlie thank you very much. will wait for it! i'm planning on finally making my comic. maybe i can ask for your critique sometime later. i'm still trying to learn the what-nots from your videos.
I'm drawing my first webtoon, and my plan for background was gradients and solid colors xd UNTIL I watched this video!! Thank you so much for sharing this. IT IS SO HELPFUL! What have you studied to dedicate yourself to comics / webtoons? any advice for beginners (I'm a graphic designer and a frustraded illustrator haha)?
I've purchased a handful of art books through my life, but I've only skimmed them. Honestly the best advice I have for you is don't be afraid to fail and try to make as many comics as you can. Start with short comics that don't mean anything to you, just fun, silly. Get longer and more serious as you get more comfortable. And try to have fun :-) There's only a handful of books I'd recommend. Figure - amzn.to/3gKFZwn Perspective - amzn.to/32Ry6gG Writing - amzn.to/3ey6ZMT
For part two, could you give a tip for foreshortening things? Whenever I draw someone reaching towards the viewer or something similar, it just looks like they have "Yaoi Hands" 😓😅
Hah. No. I just tried to sound more energetic. I'm a pretty low volume kinda guy. If you met me in person and we had a normal conversation you'd think I was dead :)
desaturate....or make the borders of the panel blurry. if you want the dreams to be inside panels, you can include the "waking up" panel under them, the dream sequence will be like speech bubbles for the "wake up" panel.....or use black/dark-colored background outside the panels. been reading too many comics my entire life and these bits worked for me as a reader.
The Horizon LINE is always there where you want it (or better where the eyeline of the viewers should be) Sinde the one point perspective is kinda the "short version" of the two point perspective they can have the same point( but you use two point perspective to generate another effect. Importent is : They always are on the SAME horizone line (even when you have to enlarge your canvas to see or imagine....) so if you take a photo to compare you will barely find a perfect one point perspective- even when it looks like - Not even two point ( since higher stuff or lower stuff rearwardly taper to the sky/ to the ground as well ) Perspective is a construct. It works for the mind. :)
Is it better to start with background (or at least the color palette) before coloring the characters? I've been practicing drawing but when I add my background I struggle to blend them together to the same lights and shades
I'm learning more by watching this than my entire uni course
Any video with perspective I write down and save 👁👄👁✨🏃♀️ Thanks Walter!!
Same
same!!!!!
I'm gonna have to rewatch this video a few times. SO MUCH INFO!!!
Also: Yay! He called us Discord peeps cool!
That's my new plan. I am going to cover complex stuff, so people have to re-watch a lot and I get all the views! Muhahahahah
@@walterostlie YOU DASTARDLY DASTARD!
I can do normal perspective lines for buildings that are the same shape and are square or rectangular but I really have trouble with obscure shaped buildings like in fantasy worlds or alien buildings. I also have trouble with natural landscape like mountains and forests.
I'll make a video for that. Thanks for the idea .
i'm currently working on my first webtoon and your videos are life savers!!
Congrats on starting your webtoon! Have fun!
idk why u dont have more views. ur basically like a god when it comes to easily explaining things
Appreciate you!
I have a few questions.
1:What do you do when your background perspective doesn't seem to match with your character's perspective?
2: what about fish eye lends perspective?
3: What if you have to use more than 2 point perspective? Do the same rules carry on to that too?
i've studied perspective a lot, but struggle, and this was so concise and helpful seeing it all applied
This video really put things into perspective. ( I'll see myself out ) but really, this is super helpful, thanks Walter! :)

Another Banger! You covered some stuff you have covered in the past and used that to further your tips. I really appreciate all your tips.
Great explanation! 👍😏 I also do it naturally, I guess I could call it that. Also, you can use references for your perspective.
I needed this guy in my life
Early gang from the title i think this would be helpful for me as i am working on my comic these days
thank you so much Walter all the love❤ i was struggling and asking for help and this video just landed❤
As someone who puts minimal efforts into backgrounds, this is a great trick to use! thank you for another helpful video:D

That's a good idea for a video. I'll try to put one together.
@@walterostlie Looking forward to it! ^_^ your channel is super helpful
I'm digging these videos. Just started working on my own comic and these are perfect for referencing.
Love this video, super helpful :) thank you ♡
sweet shirt!

This is so helpful ahh TuT please a part 2!!!
Always enjoy these vids! Keep up the great work 👏🏻👏🏻
seriously thank you so much for these videos you helped me improve my art so much 🥺
So happy they have been helping. Thank you for telling me and have fun drawing!
You’re seriously one heck of an awesome guy! Thanks a ton for doing this❤️
Aw, thanks! Appreciate you being here.
Thank you, this is very helpful 👍😊
Your perspective tips are always great and I always want to see more, so bring on part 2!!!
Excellent video on perspectives
Thanks!
I would absolutely love a pt 2 on this-, thank you for everything Walter! :)
+1 on this! In fact, a whole series from you @walter I’d pay to watch!
The celebrity appearances aren't nearly as grand as your introductions for them! 😂😂😂 Thanks for the videos Walter!
Thank you for this, I was really struggling, but this video made perceiving perspective better😊
this vid is awesomely informative!
the using of human height and use of the box to draw in perspective is the answer i was looking for.
how about for part2, is how to draw angled/rotated objects but still in perspective? personally, i'm confused how to do those.
thank you very much for this vid!
Someone else mentioned that. I'll add it to the video list. Thanks!
@@walterostlie thank you very much. will wait for it! i'm planning on finally making my comic. maybe i can ask for your critique sometime later. i'm still trying to learn the what-nots from your videos.
This is so much helpful
THANK YOU!!! ❤
Can’t believe you got THE person A and B to star in your video!
I know a sign that knows a sign.
I clicked the bell after these tips NGL
Thank you! You rock!

Plz do part 2
You explain drawing like drinking water
Yet I will still choke on it and die 😆
Hah. Nice word play
sir its really informative thanks alot but sir can you teach us how to draw character with background using up and low horizon line
Yeah, I can do that.
For part two, could you give a tip for foreshortening things? Whenever I draw someone reaching towards the viewer or something similar, it just looks like they have "Yaoi Hands" 😓😅
Have you by any chance seen Sycra's foreshortening video? He uses the "coil technique" which really really helps!
He's Sycra on youtube :))
I'll see what I can do. Thanks!
great video
You have so much more energy! Good sleep schedule?
Hah. No. I just tried to sound more energetic. I'm a pretty low volume kinda guy. If you met me in person and we had a normal conversation you'd think I was dead :)
love your vids!!!!!!!!
Thank you!
I have a question, How do you draw dreams or flashbacks in a webtoon or manga? How can you make it appear as a dream?
desaturate....or make the borders of the panel blurry. if you want the dreams to be inside panels, you can include the "waking up" panel under them, the dream sequence will be like speech bubbles for the "wake up" panel.....or use black/dark-colored background outside the panels.
been reading too many comics my entire life and these bits worked for me as a reader.
@@erkling5865 thank you so muchh
Brilliant 🏆
i accidentally started the video in slowmotion and got really scared o_o
That does sound freaky. Like the start of a bad dream.
Useful
2 point 3 point do they have same horizon point? Can u explain in pt.2?
The Horizon LINE is always there where you want it (or better where the eyeline of the viewers should be) Sinde the one point perspective is kinda the "short version" of the two point perspective they can have the same point( but you use two point perspective to generate another effect.

I did a video about this that may help th-cam.com/video/ThYZJqNNzhA/w-d-xo.html
@@walterostlie I watched it thank you 😍 it waa very helpfull please make more tips fir backgrounds I really struggle to make them
Nice
Perspective tips FEAT. bathroom and crosswalk men
The video no one knew they wanted.
Famous 🚹🚺🚻...😆😂🤣
Noot noot
first! (maybe)
I only understood transpose height 😌 the rest were kind of confusing.
Yeah, they are a little tricky. Try watching it step by step while drawing along. You have to do it a few times and then it will seem easy.
