Three-point perspective grid

Full-featured one.


3 Point perspective grid uses the classic perspective construction with three vanishing points.

The vertical lines converge to the third vanishing point.

Right-hand vanishing point

The vanishing points are marked with white handles. Note that they are usually far outside the canvas. You can place them wherever you wish.

3

The horizon line (not marked in the application)


Professional tip:

The farther away from the canvas the VPs are, the more natural the perspective looks. See Setting up the perspective grid for more hints.
