Help Request: Chapter 6 - Using existing perspective - Step 5
Hi there,

I have a problem in Chapter 6 - Using existing perspective - Step 5:
When the author says: "The carpet is made on a new layer behind the open doorway, following the perspective lines to get the angle right".

I really don't know how to create that? I have used Free Transformation to match the layer with perspective, but I can't modify that like the image of book.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Any help would be greatly appricated.

Sorry xsi. I first didn't understand your question, believing you were talking about how to draw color guides ! So I have deleted my answer.

I have not tried this exercise but I think if you paste a carpet (view from bove) on a second layer under the wall ans distort it with the Free Transformation tool, it should work. But I've not found any carpet in the folder on DVD! So you have to create one and can use a part of the carpet figured on Chris martin's photo "205.jpg" then color it into brownish hue. In this case the perspective guides will help you draw the shape and to follow the right perspective . Hope it helps you.

Thanks for your reply.

The fact is that I have also a major problem for understanding the perspective and where to start drawing such lines in any image. Whether the images are one-point perspective, two-point or three-point is very much confusing from me and I cannot recognize it. Is there any simple way to help me identify any images perspective easily? I mean, I can easily find out the image is one / two or three point perspective. Besides, I don’t know really where to start the drawing of various lines in perspective.

Hi Xsi, triy to imagine planes which pass by the faces of an object of the image, for example the washer. Their sides vanish towards a common point to the left, to the right and if vertical lines are not exactly vertical, towards a third point (the yellow plane downward, very very far!).
