Your perspective or Mine?

Rendering Perspectives

Interior Rendering

we were given a draft of a two point perspective Interior space with a mezzanine floor which needed to be redrawn by designing the area.
I tried to recreate the space given as an art gallery with paintings and sculptures.

Interior rendering

The drawing was needed to be rendered in pencil colour. I received a B grade and was asked to control the colour scheme.
I have used too many different colours for the interior of the space.

Perspectives of Design

For our last assignment in Design communication class we were told to draw 2 two point perspective drawing of the retail shop we were doing for our design 02 class.
I choose the activity area and the display area of my retail shop.
To draw the perspective views we needed to draw guide lines that exceeds A3 paper so that our perspective would fit to an A3 paper.

Activity Area.

This is the activity area of the retail shop with a futuristic style and sells congkak.
The weird table that you see is huge congkak.
I got a C+ for this drawing and rendering and was asked to improve on my rendering skills.
I also forgot to include human figures on this drawing which was part of this assignment.

Display Area.

This is the two point perspective view of the display area of the retail shop.
I received a C grade as the picture looks distorted, missing of the human figure, empty looking drawing and also because of my poor rendering.

Stories to be told

Story Board

Story board Drawing

The story board consists of 6 different two point perspective views of the Artist studio. Each view needs to have human figure and everything in the view needs to be drawn according to the guide lines in pencil.

Draft Of Story Board

All the 6 drawings are then traced into tracing paper using ink without the guide lines, just the furniture and the human figure. Then arrows are added to show the order of the story with also a brief description of the view under it.

Story Board

I got a C+ for this work and things i needed to improve was the human figure and not to draw too complicated arrows. Also to fill the empty spaces in the drawings.

Story board rendering

The story board is photo copied on to marker paper and rendered in it by using marker and pencil colour for details. We needed to choose a colour scheme for the Artist studio and I chose blue and brown for the wood.

Rendering of Story Board

I received a grade of C for this Rendering. It seems that i choose a lot of brown which confused the lecturer what my colour scheme was. I was also told to improve on my human figure and to apply the shade and shadow of objects correctly.

A whole new challenge

Two point perspectives

Estimating Line method

This was a new method of drawing perspectives that we learned in this semester.
two point perspectives means that in this drawing there would be two vanishing points.

before drawing a two point perspective, we are need to draw a grid. To draw this grid first we have to draw a two parallel line for eye level and ground level.
Then we need to set two points on the eye level for vanishing points, and two other points named Station Vanishing Point a.k.a SVP.
A lot of lines had to be drawn from these points to form a grid and to minimise confusion we were told to use different coloured pens for different points.
After forming the grid we had to choose any view we wanted to draw form the floor plan and draw it on the grid. I chose the kitchen.

Draft of two point perspective

To draw the final drawing of the two point perspective, we had to resize the image to fit into A3 paper and to be traced back into tracing paper by ink.

Two point perspective

I got 6/10 due to lack of details in my furniture. I was advised to refer books for examples of detailing and also to improve my line quality.

Photograph method

the next method of drawing two point perspective was the photograph method. we were asked to find 5 pictures of two point perspective and our lecturer Ms. Norji selected  the 2 best pictures for each of us. 

In this method, we had to find out where the vanishing points were of each picture and then draw the perspective view.

 I received a B+ for my first drawing and a B for the next and I was told to improve my line quality in both of my drawings.
