konst54 in the post "250 Box Challenge (#2)"

2015-06-15 16:39

Hello!

Starting the 250 box challenge, I faced the following problem. I don't fully understand how angles change. When box rotation is uniform, everything is OK. But I fail to plan and draw non-standart boxes with one side sligthly visible, or rotated just a little bit from the neighbour box the way I want, and so on. Could you give some tips about angle changes mechanics? For example, you can see the picture - I'm not sure here about the axis - what should the angles of Y-sign be and why?

Here I definitely feel, that bottom should be bigger, but why, if the top seems to be closer to viewer (because we see top side)? And so on.

I get some information from rotating a real box, but some practical tips would be very useful too.
