  2. Perspective (graphical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perspective_(graphical)

    Artists may choose to "correct" perspective distortions, for example by drawing all spheres as perfect circles, or by drawing figures as if centered on the direction of view. In practice, unless the viewer observes the image from an extreme angle, like standing far to the side of a painting, the perspective normally looks more or less correct.

  3. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    In isometric projection, the most commonly used form of axonometric projection in engineering drawing, [4] the direction of viewing is such that the three axes of space appear equally foreshortened, and there is a common angle of 120° between them. As the distortion caused by foreshortening is uniform, the proportionality between lengths is ...

  4. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    Oblique drawing is also the crudest "3D" drawing method but the easiest to master. One way to draw using an oblique view is to draw the side of the object you are looking at in two dimensions, i.e. flat, and then draw the other sides at an angle of 45°, but instead of drawing the sides full size they are only drawn with half the depth creating ...

  5. Isometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_projection

    Isometric graph paper can be placed under a normal piece of drawing paper to help achieve the effect without calculation. In a similar way, an isometric view can be obtained in a 3D scene. Starting with the camera aligned parallel to the floor and aligned to the coordinate axes, it is first rotated horizontally (around the vertical axis) by ± ...

  6. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    In an oblique pictorial drawing, the displayed angles among the axes as well as the foreshortening factors (scale) are arbitrary. The distortion created thereby is usually attenuated by aligning one plane of the imaged object to be parallel with the plane of projection thereby creating a true shape, full-size image of the chosen plane.

  7. Parallel projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_projection

    In an oblique pictorial drawing, the displayed angles separating the coordinate axes as well as the foreshortening factors (scaling) are arbitrary. The distortion created thereby is usually attenuated by aligning one plane of the imaged object to be parallel with the plane of projection, creating a truly-formed, full-size image of the chosen plane.

  8. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    An example of a multiview orthographic drawing from a US Patent (1913), showing two views of the same object. Third angle projection is used. In third-angle projection , the object is conceptually located in quadrant III, i.e. it is positioned below and behind the viewing planes, the planes are transparent , and each view is pulled onto the ...

  9. Talk:Perspective (graphical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Perspective_(graphical)

    For someone drawing foreshortening is a "technique" in that it is a "specialized procedures and methods used in" drawing to show something that doesn't exist (like creating the illusion of a 3D body "feet on" in a 2D drawing ) by exaggerated squashing down, overlapping, or converging the drawing. Its learned in drawing, so its a technique.
