This is a simple and quick building tutorial that teaches one to make a large number of buildings in perfect perspective in a short time and in a cheap and easy manner. One can obviously elaborate from here by placing windows in various locations and add other elements like billboards and doors... etc. LOL. ^\/^.
I hope everyone has fun with this one and that it helps those who are dumbfounded by making decent buildings. ^^.
Have fun. LOL. ^\/^.

When, for example, looking down, from atop a building to the street below, the streets and buildings around it seem to bulge near a fourth perspective line and then straighten out as you look up. http://www.scottmcdaniel.net/drawin.....rspective.html
And I just realized that it is supposed to be a 5 point perspective. My bad. LOL. ^\/^.

Ah, thanks, Now I understand what you were getting at. I remember seeing that in older cartoons, when the camera 'pivots' to look from one end of a hallway to the other be panning the camera over a matte shot of this. It always looked 'wrong' to me back then, probably because they hat the effect focused too close in the center, so it looked more like two halls meeting at an angle, with a rounded corner at the junction.
Yes, but in the cartoons I remembered, they used linear one point perspective for the hall ends, and only went curvilinear for the point where the walls would have 'met in a corner.'
In real life, the curvilinear effect tends to be a lot subtler, and our minds naturally try to 'filter out' the effect. I have had first hand experience with this, as i am nearsighted, and every time my prescription is made stronger, for the first week with the new lenses, everything in the center of my FOV is bulged out at me, but it becomes less noticeable every day, until flat surfaces again look flat.
