Perspective is an essential technique for drawing backgrounds. But...

 

・I understand the knowledge, but how can I use it in my own illustrations?

・When the composition becomes even a little complicated, I don't know where to place the vanishing point or how to draw the lines.

 

--Are you having trouble with this?

 

Even if you understand perspective, you'll have trouble when you actually try to draw an illustration.

 

This time,

 

・CLIPSTUDIO PAINT's "Perspective Ruler"

・CLIPSTUDIO PAINT's standard 3D primitive "Cube"

 

I'll show you how to draw a triangular attic with a skylight using these two.

 

You can draw a beautiful isosceles triangular roof, so please check it out.

① Load 3D primitives

Load Clip Studio Paint's standard 3D primitive "Cube" onto the canvas where you have drawn the rough sketch.

  • Select the cube -> Tool Properties -> Alpha to Translucent -> Opacity to 50

  • Uncheck Display shadows on floor surface, which is affected by light source

  • Window -> Subtool Details

  • Sub Tool Details → Placement

  • Change Position Y to -35, Global Rotation Z to -45

 

The red lines are the guide for the roof and floor.

Operate the camera to align the cube with the rough floor and roof.

② Insert a perspective ruler

Click on the red square on the cube layer to display the ruler.

 

Next, use the "Perspective Ruler" tool to draw perspective lines on the diagonal parts of the cube's roof (four lines in total).

 

 

③Draw the line art

Now you're ready to draw the lines of the building.

 

Now we'll draw the interior of the attic.

 

The perspective ruler is active, so you can draw a beautiful isosceles triangle for the attic.

 

If you add a 3D material, you can add it to the canvas with perspective applied.

 

Once you've finished drawing the rough line art for the interior, hide only the cube in the object list, and also hide the perspective ruler.

 

Add the people and finer details of the interior.

④Painting and finishing

Once you've finished coloring the entire image, display the perspective ruler once more.

Then add an emissive layer and add starlight.

With the perspective ruler enabled, you can draw the starlight in a straight line following the angle of the roof.

It's finished!
