Isometric perspective.

What is Isometric perspective?

*Draw a new bg of a building and its suroundings of your choice which uses an isometric perspective.

Restrictions
No colour restrictions and the resolution should be something like 32x240, 640x480.

Good luck all!

Very interesting topic, specially the link to the tutorial... I've learned that with isometry you can draw bg very quick, and, if smart, create a database of objects (in The Sims style) to redouce all the artistical project to a simply "cut and paste matter".

Here is my very first attempt at iso:



This is the office of Sgt. Lou and Lt. Torder. Both are detectives that work together in a little town called Lorburgh. Lou is an old cop, but a little pig, his mates call him "Lou the Law"... Torder is a new and methodic policeman who takes a lot of attention in having all ordered, people call him "Torder the Order"... Together they're known as "Law and Order".

EDIT: Here are some objects of my database... You can see them in "contributions thread in CL"

Great entry Farlander. I've become addicted to iso perspective for a month and i've started making a little data base of objects, like you mentioned. Glad you found the link helpfull .

[Darth Mandarb]

Farlander - that's a great pic and an awesome start to the 'objects' database.Ã,  We're going to have some fun with this

I decided to make an entry ...



meh ... I rushed a little.

[Nacho]

Wow! That's a lovely bground indeed... I see that ISO accepts more shadows than the ones I did...
