Product Description:
Gain a New Perspective on Drawing

Master perspective like the pros! Vanishing Point shows you how to conquer the fundamentals of perspective drawing and then equips you with technical tricks and tools that make dynamic and complex scenes a snap. This complete guide helps you build your understanding of perspective to an intuitive level so you can draw anything you can imagine. Inside you'll find:
  • Complete instruction on drawing in one-, two- and three-point perspective and four- and five-point curvilinear perspective (where "straight" lines are drawn as curves). Curvilinear perspective has not been taught in any other perspective book--until now!
  • Full-color, step-by-step demonstrations move you beyond the theories and let you practice the techniques in real scenes.
  • A special chapter on drawing curves helps you break out of the box and draw cylinders, ellipses, cars and, most importantly, people in perfect perspective.
  • Shortcuts and tips show you how to create believable perspective in no time flat.
No matter what your skill level, Vanishing Point offers you a new way of looking at perspective and lets you draw as though you have decades of drawing experience--even if you don't. You'll learn everything you need to know to pour your imagination on the page with power and confidence.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Breaking New Ground - A fresh take on the subject of Perspective for Comics!
Jason Cheeseman-Meyer has done something special with "Vanishing Point" - he makes a pretty darn difficult subject look fun and easy. An initial flip through the book with its colorful multi-genre example illustrations is all it takes to know this one's different.

The author offers fresh looks at basic one, two and three-point perspectives and heads into new territoy with solid explanations for FOUR and FIVE-points. That's right - FINALLY, a book that covers the fun fisheye lens look ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent resource
I thought I had a fairly good handle on perspective drawing, but this book goes into significantly more depth. (Pun intended.) It provides exciting options for approaching a piece of art beyond the ordinary, and many little tips and tricks on solving perspective problems. Even though it is themed towards comic and fantasy art, I would recommend it to any artist who wants to have a greater understanding of perspective, and more tricks up their sleeve for producing believable and emotionally impactful ...

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perpective for Comics
This book is good and clear for beginners and the more advanced. It touches some topics I haven't learned at art school. Definitely a book I will be using frequently. All other books talk about the same vanishing points.
The practical examples in this book will help the student grasp the subject quickly. Love it!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - perspective in comic art
I highly recommend this book. It is a simple read with simple diagrams and explanations on how to draw in perspective. i have recommended its title in other reviews i wrote. I think you will be very pleased with this book if you want to see, read and practice from a book.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent book on Perspective
I'm an artist by hobby and have read 8 books on perspective but this one is exceptional. It's not just a book for comic artists but a great book for learning perspective. I was surprised when I received it. It covers topics that I have not seen covered in any other perspective book I've read. Such as, curvilinear perspective. It covers 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 point perspective. I never saw any other coverage of 4 and 5 pt perspective before. Great book for any artist, comic or not and great illustrations. ... Read More
