    Mecha Perspective Help.



    I'm trying to improve drawing from a perspective. I haven't quite got it down, so I'm seeking some recommendations. Thanks for your help!

    This robot is pretty cool.

    I'd say make the left arm bigger as though it's somewhat reaching towards us since his arms are reaching outward at an angle. It will give the illustration more depth and believability when you get to the coloring process.

    first, the perspective is pretty solid. I cant see any major mistakes. but since you wanna improve it, here is what you could do:

    I took it into PS and did 3 simple things. arsanik mentioned already: I enlarged his left arm (right arm from our viewpoint) and sized down his right arm. that brings his left arm up and pushes his right arm away. that helps to create space. I did the same thing with his left leg to bring it up.
    but these are just minor changes and they are done quickly, I dont know if you can actually see it, thats just the direction you can take to better illustrate an object in space.

    cheers
