[ReviewerHQ]

[MrEminemJustin]

hey u so gooooooooooooooooood!

[solidsnake58]

THANK YOU! This really made the concept easier for me to understand. I really wish you did more tutorials. I'd love to see your take on 2 and 3 point. The loose technique really made for a fun look and helped take the pressure off of being exact. Thanks again.

[ngpr70]

I used this for my art class in elementary upper grades (4th-6th) and they loved it. please post more!!!!!!

i love that you talk us through this without all the crazy loud music most do.

[ngpr70]

I used this for my art class in elementary upper grades (4th-6th) and they loved it. please post more!!!!!!

[Emshobee]

Waiting for your other tutorials!

[Emshobee]

Great tips and I liked your casual approach to this - my students enjoyed. Thanks!

[TheUnknown921]

my art teacher showed our class this video, and i thought i was good. this inspired me to do more perspective drawings.

[zendricz]

I want to be an architect when i grow up and this is really helpful ty :)

[BlackOpsDude99]

thanks bro that was awesome!

[halee926]

I saw a video of yours in my art class and I HAD to check you out!

[HAMENOS2FORES3]

now i can draw spiderman comics at last :)!

[Doozitoz00]

WOOOOOOOOOOOWWWW

[MrSaturn33]

My teacher made us watch this for Homework...lol

[sopos63]

i'd say you're almost pushing to 5pt perspective drawing by having the curved lines... though you've only established one vanishing point. someone once coined the term "seussian" or "seussical" (nothing to do with the musical...) and i've explored that with some of my own perspective drawings. it would be interesting to see how you would translate your style into 2pt or even 3pt perspective drawing

cheers

[mrRainbowRobot]

I have to do this for art -_-

[sisasiha]

wooow..nice nice nice..thank you

[venkatkk]

awesome..you're really a killer tomato! haha

[lucian6775]

this city sucks

[DrawingWithGordon]

Hi TomatoDragon,

Thanks for the one point video tutorial! It was very informative, clear and entertaining with your VO. I also like your loose style. It give the drawing more life.

I just did and tutorial on three point perspective and was wondering if you could take a look at it and let me know what you think.

Thanks!

Gordon

[CastleOfButterflies]

Such a nice effect with the curved lines, simple, but at the same time, genius!

[tastywhatever]

How do you rub out the guide lines without also rubbing out the picture itself?

[hellboy7876]

U rock dude thumbs up :-)

[D7E7X7X]

thangs man! its so simpel. and u explaining it very good.it realy gives me a good basik to work on with that :) thangs. your tutorial its grate!

[apzzzzzzzz]

[kwh112233]

i loev the cartoon look to this

[kyawaungcivil]

Great

[aylera]

Hey dude, we need more videos! Did you quit drawing??

[Omugen1]

I've been sketching characters my whole life, but when I decided I wanted to expand my subject matter, I found that I had HELL with land and cityscapes. This helped SOOOOOOOOOOOOO much.

[WoundedArtistProject]

Interesting start!  Good video, thanks

[lifetimetodowhat]

This helped SOOO much!

[genzzzyME]

did u used a software in making this?? what is it??

[D1RTYDANN]

yeah, i definitely think the cartoon look of the buildings is a great technique. This helped a lot, thanks.

[Akitahanyou]

Shadowstarlight: I'm assuming it's for Art Apprecitaion? If so, that's what I"m here for. :D

[LamboGallardo34]

are you using a tablet or mouse?

[Kidliric]

thanks...i always have problems with perspective

[MOWMOW24]

sounds like beetlejuice!

[shadowstarlight3]

watching this was part of my homework for a class.

really liked the tutorial and its sketchyness =D

[ZJike]

i like how u dont put music in ur video. most ppl think its cool, but the other people cant hear wat the other person is saying in the video, and you cant really understand wat the person is tryn to tell you.

hha nice drawing btw =]

[rsnowdd]

wow this really helped for art classes with my students. I really appreciate it. THANK YOU. It is nice that there is nothing that would be outside the box to show to young students...BIG ART HUGS to YOU..FROM rebecca in Virginia

[lucian6775]

stupid



[Roids1991]

Nice Job! :) I like black and white drawings as well

[aziii007]

Hats off to you man. Helped a hell lot. God bless you

[justVme]

Loves this tutorial 5 starsss ;D

I suck at backgrounds...I can only draw dudes :P I want to draw a room from the upper corner and seen down...If you know how I mean.

Is it a two point perspective?

[666pandemic]

There an easy way to create a grid? I don't think I possess the patience you have to draw them all out each time like you do. I got frustrated trying to get the spacing right with a ruler, I can only imagine freehand.

[makstad]

Well, I think the reason for freehand is that it's faster and looser.  I think it might be more fun, actually. (Rather than using a ruler.)

[666pandemic]

Well I think I have to just practice it more and get accustomed to it.

[Nunchuck]

great job- helped alot

[sketnomore]

brickfence, this was i think on Adobe illustrator, using the pen tools, and obviously a wacom or something.

Beautiful work, cheers TomatoDragon :D

[petruswoo]

that head on the cam line things genious. thanks bro.

[ogiyose]

thankyou thankyou thankyou thankyou thankyou!

[ermentro]

Cool! My art teacher showed this to my class at school because we're making cities!

[aaaaabbbbbcccccd]

dipshit under me: if you would watch the video you would get your answer.

[brickfence]

are you doing that on a computer?

if so what is the program called?

[MusicPruducerInc]

he said its sketch book pro!

[archymage1]

Thanks so much. Awesome, making my clouds not so detailed helps.

[CamMci]

thanks, im taking art gcse and this helped alot

[hydrogenix]

oh man that's amazing you know so simple trick of drawing this lines and u solved my life!!! thank you and great job! keep going!!!

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks a lot. Glad I could hep out.

[TheYella20]

@TomatoDragon you didn't just help...you solved his life!!!

[Oxxxyy]

Hey, Do you think you could tell me what program you used and what brush / tool you used to shade in the buildings? Thanks.

[TomatoDragon]

Sure. I use Sketchbook Pro and used the marker tool.

[silvinhachbr]

Excellent, thank you!

[TomatoDragon]

Welcome.

[LittleLostPig]

Thank you! That head thing on the horizon helped a lot! It's little things like that, that makes a big diffrence.

[TomatoDragon]

No problem. Glad I could help :)

[YrUlUKkiNAtM34]

hmmm interesting but what happens if you have a character that is 6 heads tall and you may have to place the haracter above the horizon line, is that cool?

[TomatoDragon]

Heh..yeah, that's completely cool. Everything that hits the horizon line, is relative to how it measures up to anything else on the line.

[YrUlUKkiNAtM34]

oh ok thanks lot.

[carlymango]

You are my ultimate favourite artist on DA. i love the way your drawings are so moody, especially your anthro women.

[TomatoDragon]

Hey thanks a lot for the kind comment. It's funny, I never use to draw anthro until I found DeviantArt.

[123jaw101]

hi, i am doing interior desin and residential architechture and i mainly visualise things. i am now learning how to put this on paper. do you think your book would help me?

thank you, i enjoyed your tutorial

[TomatoDragon]

Hey there. My book is a concept art book, mostly consisting of characters, creatures, and some machinery and landscapes. You can check out my website as I have some sample images from the book. Take a look and see if it's something that would be helpful to you. Thanks for the comment.

[tapissary]

This tutorial is really clear. It's enjoyable just to sit back, listen, watch, and learn. I was hooked from the beginning with the perspective, then the shadows and figures pulled the drawing together for its full effect.

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks for the kind words. It's been a while since I posted a new tute. I've been trying to get another one up. Shouldn't be too much longer.

[natsu76]

the pencil scratches really are addictive. i tend to overdo it.hehe

thanks tom-chan ^_^

[TomatoDragon]

I competely agree. I go overboard many times myself. Thanks a lot.

[JephyrX]

Cool!  I like your loose approach to perspective!

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks a lot my friend.

[fullnarutoZ]

wow i like this!!

i like your style too cartoony =)

[TomatoDragon]

Hey thanks a lot. Yeah, my style is very distorted. Especially buildings.

[SuperAddictionLeague]

Hi! I'm TheQuinkan from DeviantArt :D This is really helping me. I' m trying to make a comic book and I might buy the book you mentioned :D It somewhat interests me :D

[TomatoDragon]

Hey there! I'm glad this tutorial was of some help to you. Good luck with your comic. If you're interested in my book, just drop me a line. :)

[hydrion15]

DA??? as in deviantart have you looked up a hydrion I'm not nearly as good as you but I've seen your artwork there its good

[TomatoDragon]

Yep. I should have said Deviant Art. Thanks for the kind words, bud.

[slaydo10]

Thanks, Dragon. Any chance of you doing any scene paintings in real time with characters and breaking the tutorials into bits. That would be awesome.

[TomatoDragon]

That's an idea.  I'll get on that as soon as I can.

[artisands]

This is how to do it! finally I see someone putting a grid down in perspective before drawing the layout, nice work! I would like to see something hand drawn though ;)

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks a lot my friend. Yeah...that grid really comes in handy. I don't use it all the time, but it's one of those things you sometimes can't do without. Well...I don't have any type of vid cam to record myself drawing...and pretty much all my illustrations are done digitally these days but I'll see what I can do.

[SpidersBlood]

That's great! It's really helpful, and your commentary makes it interesting!

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks, my friend. Glad it was helpful.

[AmzarahGunn]

Hey, it's Toxicapocalypse/moreserotonin-­please from DA. I followed the link in your journal.

I found this really helpful. :] I suck with perspective so this really cleared up a lot of things for me. I like how relaxed your style is, I think I'm going to start being less anal retentive about lines now too lol

[TomatoDragon]

Hey there! How are you? Glad you found this helpful. Perspective is still very tricky for me. That's why slop helps me cover up mistakes.

[femalewithtalent]

I like your style

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks a lot. Appreciate it.

[nospoonkid]

Hey, Great tutorial man!!!!, i watch you in Deviantart, Amazing work!!!

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks a lot for the support, my friend.

[rajee309]

What digital art program do you use?

[TomatoDragon]

I use Sketchbook Pro.

[rajee309]

Cool. :D

[DJEmma]

awesome mate! this is such a huge help!

cheers

Darkjak

[TomatoDragon]

Hey Emma! Glad to see you here. Thanks a lot!

[rajee309]

Awesome Tutorial John aka Tomato Dragon.

Tomato Dragon finally speaks. ^^ :D

Maybe you could do a Illustrator tutorial as well.

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks a lot, Raj. Unfortunately I don't own Illustrator...but if you Google it, you'll find many tutes.

[theeph]

Hey Tomato. Love your dA.

Great tutorial and looking forward especially to your three point and explosion tutes. Keep going!

[TomatoDragon]

Thanks a lot. I'll get the other tutes up as fast as I can.

[Doziai]

YOU EFFIN RULE! :3 (MorbidGoat)

[TomatoDragon]

Heh...well thanks. Appreciate it.
