Perspective in nature and why it sucks

blackash:

I’m trying to answer some of Salacia’s questions. First a disclaimer, I am not the best when it comes to perspective. I may be/probably am wrong about most things, these are just my experiences. Please feel free to correct and add things.

Since there are no straight lines in nature it can be difficult to establish perspective. Things don’t lie on a flat plane, trees grow in any direction, and rivers bend. But that’s why landscapes can be fun.

Warning: long and kinda confusing!

Ash, this is an awesome tutorial! O: I hope you don’t mind if I filed it away for reference as well. ;3

Organic landscapes aren’t too bad, compared to an industrial background. Like Ash said, everything in nature flows pretty much to its own accord; don’t feel too stressed if a tree looks to be at an odd angle or anything like that. I did a little digging around on DA, and found some cool tutorials:

You’ll do fine, Sala, your landscapes already look awesome. D:
