X and X-ray Tricks - Minecraft Perspective Drawing

In this lesson, I’ll show you two important perspective techniques: the X and the X-ray. The X technique helps you find the midpoint of rectangles, which is key for keeping things in proportion especially when you have repeating sections. The X-ray technique is great for dealing with parts of your drawing you can’t see. I’ll walk you through drawing Steve from Minecraft so you can see how these techniques help you construct complex structures in 2-point perspective.
