    Drifter,

    Bit of constructive criticism. you can view the item in question by moving your eyes which can create distortions in perspective because you are living in a 3D world, rendering to a 2D world.

    Your divsion line of your perspective should be the closest edge of your modem. Therefore all lines going off to the left which are horizontal to the picture plain in the orthographic should receed to your imaginary vanishing point on your left perspective point, likewise on the right. This is simple two point perspective as you only use three point normally with buildings because they are so big.

    The lines of convergence are opposite on the lable around the modem to perspective that I learned in school (mind you remember I am a nerd, I drop things through a cone of vision -- had to compete against guys who learned drafting in high school when in college -- you know I really didn't want to take cooking class, would have rather had shop classes, nevertheless, I still passed). But check our your perspective, easy correction.
    Every day's a new day, "draw" on what you've learned.

    well, thanks for the constructive criticism sally, that's why i'm here, to learn

    i made some changes

    if it still looks weird, it is just because that's the shape of the thing - it is quite oddly shaped....

    The perspective is much better. Don't mind me, for years I've taken my drawings and held them up to the mirro because I tend to elongate something when it is laying obliquely to me. It happens.

    It's all about learning how to see. We think we are seeing but until you draw something in detail, you really have missed a lot.

    Good attention to detail.

    My God, you even draw the damage to the pencil, you really are observant. It are the little imperfections that make items look more real.

    Well done.

    Your pencil may require sharpening Bob but your drawing skills don't.
