Below are step by step images tutorial to view along with the drawing video instruction. Step one, I start off drawing a circle as a head, then oval for shoulder and straight line drawn down to the vanishing point. Step two, I change the circle shape into a tube shape, then same with the body from shoulder along with the lines pointing down to vanishing point. Step three, instead of a cone shape I draw and then adjust the hip and legs drawing measuring with the reduction size of the cone. Step four, now I can start sketching out an actual head start with his hair. Step five, from the top of the head I drew hair, his face, down to shoulder but make sure the proportion goes along with the actual perspective line and proportion we established earlier. Step six, now I can draw the rest of the body using the established perspective line as guideline. Watch the video tutorial for more in depth and more detail instruction.

Hi I was thinking about the ltihgs. I think that in the expreso setup is this: For me works fine.1. create a cylinder and then create an area light. (put the cilynder in rotaion H=-90ba2. In the light details, select and object. Put the cylinder as the object.3. Put the light as visible.4. Create an xpresso tag.5. Put the cylinder object as the fisrts object and select global rotation , H rotation in the output.6. Creates a range mapper. connect with the cylinder output.7. In the properties of the mapper put input units: degrees output units user defined.Now:input lower -90bainput upper: 0baoutput lower 0%output upper 100% (or whatever you want, this is gonna be thee intensity for the light)8. finally, put the light in the expresso manager, and then in the input select general>intensity. Connect with the range mapper.That works for me When you rotate the cylinder up, its gonna be more intense until reach the 0ba.Of course you need the setup for the attactor to automate the the rotation I just hope this could be helpful and of course lets see if I come close to a solution. I could post the file if someone need it.Bye .
