thats so awesome, you kids today are so lucky to be able to follow tutorials like Marks and others.they are way better teachers than the old highschool teachers we had in my day! i took art at school and faild to take turn in one piece of work,as the teacher was only interseted in perving on these two girls. im now 48 and started drawing for my boy,now people tell me i should be selling my drawings.....that teacher failed 99% of us as kids. Mark as thought me more in one video! (not saying all teachers are like that by the way). happy drawing
We had this in school, along with two and one point perspective, but at that time I wasn't that much into drawing in perspective, so I forgot about it. Thanks for teaching me again! ;)
I was like ''No, no man, do not leave that shadow like that flowing over the brick and fall over like some kind of liquid''... Then that timelapse came, you corrected it, and it was such a relief... You made me sweat and my OCD meter just went trough the roof... Love your videos, keep up!
just commented on your super hero tutorial. just to say, you are a great teacher for us all so thank you for that! i love drawing along to your videos,you have helped me a lot. thanks Mark....keep up the great work!
I was having a little bit of trouble in class when we were taught "Three Point Perspective" and I think this has honestly helped me out a ton! Thanks a lot, Mr. Crilley!
I really am happy you put videos out here, I've gotten so much better watching your videos and learning a few techniques from you here and there.I recommended a friend to you and now he's began drawing too!!
I love how the demo pieces that you come up with to show us different skills and techniques are all things that I would be so proud to have come up with myself and would probably end out framing :P
I started drawing the backgrounds like this just a while before this video was made! I got it through the technique of another channel called koizu who draws poses with simple rough shapes and saves details for last. He said that the position is more important than the details, which really helped me out! It gets the job done easier and quicker.
Hello, Mark. Thank you so much for your videos! This series in particular has really helped me understand perspective and feel more relaxed about it. That aside, your videos are very entertaining, I usually just watch tutorials on fast forward, but yours are really worth listening to, for all the funny voices and comments. Keep doing great work!
Hi, Mark. I'm a long time viewer but this is one of my first comments. I just thought I'd say that aside from being entertaining your vids have really helped my art. I especially love the "technique" videos like this perspective series. Thank you.
+markcrilley hi mark i have a question about 3 point prespective: if the 3rd point was above the west and east points will it give you then a worm eye view?
This perspective points tutorial you did, really helped me. 3 years ago i took a 3 months course of perspective and graphic designing and I loved and then I applied to my uni at graphic design section. It helped me a lot! Thank you!!!!
Montana Mark and the quest for the Golden Gouache! Thanks for this great video, three point is definitely a weakness of mine, and this video is really helpful!
Thank you for completing the series. I always found perspective drawing difficult, especially the 2 and 3...mostly about why the points are at different distances. But you've made it so clear and easy to understand that now I can do it without feeling frustrated. I am still learning but it's a process I enjoy immensely. Have a good one.
Oh my gosh. Thank you so much for making this video! I have watched a lot of videos on 3 point perspective, but never really understood how to do it until now.
I finally found out what Garageband is. I am glad I did because before I thought you were a artist in a rock band. Anyway great video Mark , if only the little character could have blushies.
Thank you Marc! :) that helped me so much to understand 3-Point Perspective and I can finally develop my concept arts with this method! I'm kinda happy that I also realized that it's appropriate to start without the ruler and then continue with it. The ruler always shows me that I did it so wrong but thats no problem because it's a big help when I see my lines and just correct them afterwards. Btw. I also drew an forgotten temple with scratches and so on, what a nice coincidence.
Omg when i watch the time lapse version i though about the perspective you were using, and the only way having such one, was to extend the perspective point. I was so surprised when i saw that huge paper^^D . Nice job as always mark Crilley.
I created a small stage for manikins and such and set up my sketch pad on a work table set up with pegs and strings for quickly establishing any number of perspective points and discovered that all of the shadows on the stage tied to a single subterranean point no matter where on the stage the object was. This is using a single overhead light aimed at the stage.
I'm more use to naming my vanishing points as simple L.V.P., R.V.P., B.V.P., rather than to have it with other names. But then, whatever works, as long as the finished product is beautiful and presentable, your audience will not bother how the process and what you applied (and called).
I love these perspective vids ! I learn so much from these. And the technique of scanning your pencils is really awesome and something I'm going to try. Thnx Mark !
Hey Mark, Can you do a video on odd shapes in a Perspective Drawing, such as arches, spheres, etc.? Thank you! P.S. Thank you for posting these videos. You are a very talented artist and I have learned a lot from you.
Please do another Star Wars video in the spirit of The Force Awakens! I dont care if its a how to draw or another point perspective, PLEASE JUST DO ONE!
Thanks Mark! Such an informative video! Your videos inspire me to draw everyday, so thanks again! I would love to have a video on how you adjusted the colour/contrast on the computer! Thanks Nick
Hey Mark. I'm an amateur in every sense of the word. As a younger child I was rather good at art and drawing but didn't really draw throughout high school. I've always had some natural talent so I recently decided to try my hand at it again. I hate to say it but I lost so much skill, but thanks to your videos and stories I'm able to keep motivated to try and improve so thank you so much. I've heard you say in some of your videos that your UK viewers have trouble finding your books. I recently ordered a copy of Brody's Ghost book 1 from my local WHSmiths store (a store that can be found through out the UK or at least in England and Wales), I just thought id let you know that there's a place you can tell your UK viewers that they can buy your books. Looking forward to the read, wishing you the best: a huge fan :D
There are other ways to do this (mostly) digitally. If you draw a top down floor plan of what you want your scene to look like- this works best with interior spaces, but it could be adjusted for exterior scenes and landscapes- and scan it into your computer, then open the image with your preferred photo-editing software. Really, so long as you have a skew tool and a perspective grid tool, you're basically set. Make your points like Mark did, skew your photo to match those points, and draw your image.
Mark could you do more of the adventure type of drawings like this one. I find it very fascinating and fun to watch and allows me to get more ideas and inspiration thanks again for great videos.
Hey I realized that you are the one who wrote the Drawing Lesson book I really enjoyed. I loved it, but the last chapter had me in tears. I'm writing a graphic memoir and I'm researching all of this. I have a scene in court and going to court was scary as heck, so I am trying to figure out how to use Illustrator to draw a court room from a worm's eye view to show how scary it was. I'll look and see if you have a room from a worm's eye view, but thanks for your book. I made a mind map of your book.
I think, after watching your tutorial, is more easy is you draw your interior panel in A4 big size page, and then you can scan and resize to fit the panel in digital , than try to fit all the interior and perspective in a small panel drawing. At least, for a beginner.
you should do a three point perspective from a bird's eye view as well as a worm's eye view because you can use three point perspective in both wave and I think that would be extremely helpful to a lot of people
Shorter version of the Subterranian Point at the Center of the Earth - You're using Point West and Point East, might's well call it Point South, or even Deep South. 🙂
Your channel is very much FPS orientated, maybe you should be advertising your channel on FPS videos instead rather than art videos. Know your target audience. Also, it would be better if you asked people to check out your channel rather then immediately demanding they subscribe, you may get better results that way
Hey Mark, today we watched your tutorial on drawing realistic eyes in my drawing class. Just wanted to tell you that you are helping kids learn
+Jaikthesnake Tell your teacher I said Hi :)
+markcrilley i want your books but i live in Brussels and i can't find them anywhere DX. Where can i find them?
thats so awesome, you kids today are so lucky to be able to follow tutorials like Marks and others.they are way better teachers than the old highschool teachers we had in my day! i took art at school and faild to take turn in one piece of work,as the teacher was only interseted in perving on these two girls. im now 48 and started drawing for my boy,now people tell me i should be selling my drawings.....that teacher failed 99% of us as kids.

+Chris Treanor Thanks, dude I hope you keep drawing, too
I think its high time you do a "The Mark Crilley Guide to Drawing Backgrounds with Perspective". Id buy three copies
YAS
agreed ☺
yeah
id love that
I'll have 10 of those please!!
"Subterranean point in the centre of the earth." 10/10 best name for the point way far out.
Bro I swear you’re the funniest guy ever 😭 “ subterranean point at the center of the earth” so surreal 😭
We had this in school, along with two and one point perspective, but at that time I wasn't that much into drawing in perspective, so I forgot about it. Thanks for teaching me again! ;)

I love the mood and atmosphere of this drawing. Looks great.
Can never forget many tutorials on this subject of perspective. Thanks Mark!

Excellent lesson, Professor Crilley.
I was having a little bit of trouble in class when we were taught "Three Point Perspective" and I think this has honestly helped me out a ton! Thanks a lot, Mr. Crilley!

Gotta love the subterranean point in the center of the earth.
Man, I've watched tons of those and this one was my clicking point.
Mark crilley i was inspired by you to make my own drawing channel thank you !
Oh my gosh. Thank you so much for making this video! I have watched a lot of videos on 3 point perspective, but never really understood how to do it until now.
+theburntviking Glad I could help :)
You're just, simply the best at naming things!!
Hilarious and awesome video, from a hilarious and amazing artist!!
I finally found out what Garageband is. I am glad I did because before I thought you were a artist in a rock band. Anyway great video Mark , if only the little character could have blushies.

Love watching you doing magic on paper! and I really like these perspective drawings :)

Great video. Really explains how to use perspective lines, thanks!

Great work Mark - sick drawing.
James Stavridis c
I love these perspective vids ! I learn so much from these. And the technique of scanning your pencils is really awesome and something I'm going to try. Thnx Mark !
Without all the extra debris, cracks, and the broken down kinda textures, the drawings kinda looks like a very Fancy house or landmark.
You my friend, have earned a subscriber!
+Marsel Rexha Thank you Marsel :)
Hey Mark,
Can you do a video on odd shapes in a Perspective Drawing, such as arches, spheres, etc.?
Thank you!
P.S. Thank you for posting these videos. You are a very talented artist and I have learned a lot from you.
The carvings are amazing. Even if i tried, i wouldn't be able to make my scribble look like carvings.
thank you, this was really helpful :) i'm trying this when I finish that english essay...
Mark, could you please make a live stream where you answer our questions please???
+xXRainbowDustBunniesXx YEEEEEEES!

I would love to have a video on how you adjusted the colour/contrast on the computer! Thanks Nick

That's amazing how all that comes together so beautifully! :)
A Pencil Wizard! WOW :O

Geniousssss! I am loving tge lessons
Mark could you do more of the adventure type of drawings like this one. I find it very fascinating and fun to watch and allows me to get more ideas and inspiration thanks again for great videos.
I loved this video! I hope you can make more of these: Setting, effects, point perspective. You know, to learn more about drawing places :)
I finally bought your mastering manga book and I love it :)
+Wendy Sky Marvell Thank you Wendy!
Wendy!
been waiting for this to come out! When i watched the time lapse one i was gob smacked all the way through it xD Keep up the great work Mark!
Real good stuff my man

useful tips Mark thank alot !

Nice work, also I have a question. Do you have any tips for drawing the same image multiple times with different camera angles?
Wow I need this thanks.
Wow, this is really amazing. I really want to try this!!!!
It’s brilliant!!!
I was wondering if you could do a video on somebody walking down stairs.
YES YES YES!!!!!!!
Illusion of depth? You're turning into Bob Ross :P
insanely helpful
I love your videos. Also, I'm not in to Manga, but I feel like I have to get Brody's Ghost because it has my name.
Thanks! I think you'll find that Brody's Ghost can be enjoyed by both manga fans and non-manga fans. :)
you should make a video about when to use 1,2, and 3rd point perspective
Hey Mark i am a tattoo artist and your videos are awesome, i would love if you do a video explaining the perspective for figures.
You inspired me so much..thank you.. your vids are awesome :)
great video
your dimensions are so well done, that seeing your hand against it makes my head hurt
Shorter version of the Subterranian Point at the Center of the Earth - You're using Point West and Point East, might's well call it Point South, or even Deep South. 🙂
Amazing!!!
this is awesome!thank you!
Eastwestern Jonnas and the quest for the sub-terrainian center of the earth :>
Would be interesting to see how to draw complex basic structures like cylinders or archs in 2 point or 3 point perspective
@markcrilley When I use marker I use white gen pen to get the super shiny glint you get with the white paint.
Dude got your book
+Andrew Layton Thank you Andrew!
