Especially when Scott gets into the details of perspective and its terminologies I feel like I am reading a technical manual. But then again it can be my weak ability to grasp.

Don't know if this answers yo...@ trailofcrumbs,<br />Don't know if this answers your question ( I have not seen the book) but the Amazon link allows a look inside.<br />The table of contents Chapter 4, pg 053 references transferring scale in perspective.<br /><br />If you want the whole (complicated but thorough) story on perspective see this link http://www.handprint.com/HP/WCL/tech10.html<br /><br />There is no 'Homepage' as we generally think of one so it is odd to figure out at first. The 'page index' sidebar functions as links to its chapters, then at bottom of each page is link to next succeeding chapter.<br /><br />Hope it helps.David Teterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747334525619423349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-45373039245122015862013-11-27T11:26:53.834-05:002013-11-27T11:26:53.834-05:00Thanks for this recommendation.

He details how to handle situations I've not seen in other texts, such as stairs in perspective.
