I feel like a fear of perspective keeps a lot of people from doing great work, and the knowledge that it doesn't have to be mathematically perfect is a great relief.<BR/><BR/>ZanderAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567485336304809225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12782970.post-25690824120674018812008-07-25T23:29:00.000-05:002008-07-25T23:29:00.000-05:00I had just finished reading "Perspective for the C...I had just finished reading "Perspective for the Comic Book Artist" - a graphic-novel-style instructional book in which David Chelsea at first appears to be capable of explaining perspective in simple terms, but by the end of the book the reader is keenly aware that the man clearly has Aspergers and is in fact quite obsessive about everything being perfect no matter how much time it takes, and who will exclaim how EASY it is the entire time - when I decided "Fuck it, I'll just go download Sketchup." <BR/><BR/>The more I thought about it, it seemed like genius. I googled "sketchup perspective cheating" to see if I'm the first to stumble upon this little trick. Turns out: nope. But I did find a very readable and reassuring blog about perspective - Thanks!<BR/><BR/>-Matt in SeattleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12782970.post-24237617102824824992007-04-25T11:29:00.000-05:002007-04-25T11:29:00.000-05:00Gene, I was actually referring to the fact that yo...Gene, I was actually referring to the fact that you are so meticulous and precise about your perspective that people who don't measure up to your standards shouldn't be too hard on themselves.<BR/><BR/>It was one of those compliment things.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567485336304809225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12782970.post-12735791646481965322007-04-25T10:19:00.000-05:002007-04-25T10:19:00.000-05:00I should note Donn's been helping me correct my pe...I should note Donn's been helping me correct my perspective.
