Once again, excellent use of perspective. I'm sure you mentioned this in the past but for those of us new to the forum, how are you creating those faint perspective lines?

I keep thinking about those lines. For someone not at all artistic like myself, it's not until I see those that I realise how much thought goes into the panels to create the interesting angles. I'd just draw everything flat from the side if I could draw at all.

••

I have an architect's drafting machine mounted on my drawing board. The actual purpose of this is to provide a straight edge for drawing parallel lines, but since it it mounted on a rotating hub I quickly realized it could be used to create the kinds of forced perspectives common in comic art.

I also use a set square (triangle) for vanishing points closer than the hub of the machine.

(For those who sometimes have difficulty understanding this, the machine does not do the drawing. It's just a fancy straight edge (ruler). I still have to calculate the vanishing points (by eye) and draw the lines.)
