Drawing objects
- Let's take a look at objects. How do you draw things? So a good example would be a book and it's a very simple form because basically it's a box. However, you open the book and suddenly things get a little more interesting. You get pages and all this. So what I want to do is just do a quick fly-through as to how you might handle an object like this. So let's say I was going to draw a book pretty much like the ones you see above just sitting on a table. And as long as you have a reasonably good grasp of perspective, you can probably get something down that's reasonably solid like that. So what happens if say, you want to open the book, or pages are like that or you want to open the book this way? So again we have the spine of the book, that's here, that's going to flop to this point. And again we have the flat pages, the rectangular spine, and maybe the wind catches some of the pages. The pages will have an s curve or a c curve shape, very unlikely they would have much more detail…
