Hi, Tom here and welcome to this week's Circle Line Art School drawing challenge,
start by drawing a vanishing point in the center of your page, next for the
buildings, draw two lines to the base of the page
and then horizontal line to the vanishing point for the top of the
building,
now we can add two more horizontal lines and then add some diagonal lines for the vanishing point,
to make this building a little bit wider, as we're looking straight up at a
very high building, the sides of the building will get closer together as
they go towards our vanishing point in the center of the page, once we have the
basic shape of the first building, we could add a few details...
the floors of the building will all be horizontal lines, parallel to the top of
the building and the gaps between the floors will get closer together, as they
go towards the vanishing point and further apart as they come towards us,
towards the edge of the page...
we can now erase some of the guidelines that we no longer need, next we can start another
skyscraper on the left-hand side of the page,
again the vertical lines of the building will go and meet the vanishing point, but
we don't want the building to go all the way to the vanishing point because that
will make it too tall, now we can add a line to the top of the building to show
where it stops,
I'll extend this line on this particular building to the left and right to make
it into three parts building, for a building with three parts...
now, where we see the side of a building, draw a right angle of the top line of the
building and then a diagonal from the vanishing point to make the sides of the
building look 3d, look three-dimensional, so the key to this drawing, to make it
simple, is to keep all the tops of the buildings horizontal and parallel to the
edge of that particular building, parallel to the edge of the paper, and
all the sides of the buildings need to go straight to the vanishing point in
the middle of the page; and we should only add a side of the building if we
can draw a right angle from the top line of the building and then from this side
we can add a new diagonal, to create the edge of this side of the building.
Please subscribe to my youtube channel Circle Line Art School, for a new video every
Saturday, the next stage of this drawing is to add some details to the buildings
that we have already drawn, after that I think I'll add some more skyscrapers in
the gaps between the buildings, leaving some space for the sky in the middle.
Please leave a comment if you have any suggestions of what you'd like me to
draw for the next art challenge, thank you very much for watching this video,
I hope you enjoy the rest of it and see you next time!
