objects can be interpreted in different way

yeah thats one thing thats also difficult i get lost and it seems like theres so many ways to intersect these forms especially when theyre heavily overlapped. i wanted to do boxes that overlapped a lot more cause i thought it would be decent practice? but its pretty hard. If i wanted the smaller box to intersect the bigger one would that be possible? or does that mess up perspective

Better to start off with smaller overlaps as these will be more obvious how they intersect.

In general, at the start you have to make a choice about what is in front of what. After that you have to draw your intersection consistent with that choice. The size of the boxes is not particularly important.

Color and Light by James Gurney

Color and Light by James Gurney

Some of you may remember James Gurney's breathtaking work in the Dinotopia series. This is easily my favourite book on the topic of colour and light, and comes highly recommended by any artist worth their salt. While it speaks from the perspective of a traditional painter, the information in this book is invaluable for work in any medium.
