My drawing professors always said: "everything fits in a box". Basically saying, first imagine and draw the box that would fit the object in perspective. Works especially great with complex objects.

Good drawing exercise for determining proportions and locations of objects in perspective. I personally use a six inch architects scale when I'm sighting objects as you did with the pencil, but the technique is the same. When you get a chance, how about a short tutorial on drawing in windows and doors in perspective showing depth in the facade and realistic trees. Keep on drawing😀

The tips how to make my own drawing better, the fact you share your own experience step by step

[pizzatothemax]

I really want to start sketching during my travels and I stumbled upon your channel! These are very useful tips and it's the first time I've heard of "sighting". I'm not used to it at all so I'll practice this for a week (talk about cramming). Thank you!

So, When you’re measuring with your pen do you stretch your arm out straight, do you hold your arm in…? I’m always having trouble with this whole measuring thing because I feel like if I even move my arm slightly I mess up the measurements.

Thank you very much for this! I've been enjoying your series so far, and plan to continue. You guys are sweet aha

[barefacedquestions]

Thank you. Finally a sighting video that makes sense to me. I suppose you can use a short ruler for measuring proportion? Because I find it hard when things are not proportional in whole numbers, e.g. 3/4, 2/3.

Perspective is new to me. I like any hack that can help me out.

This video is really helpful thanks! :D

Since we started with a flat horizon line, how did you know how to reshape that line to give it depth?

When you say at 5.25 ' draw the rest of the form', it would be helpful if you explained how you get the VP of the two point perspective in, as it is not on the paper. Thanks :)
