/r/ing a book thats the end all be all for environments. Let me be specific, im looking for a book that just has tons of collections of all types of backgrounds, stuff that would be used in visual novels, but has more emphasize on constructing them than fully rendering them. Sort of like, the figure drawing for all its worth, but with environments.
Ive tried Perspective books, but thats all railroads, bricks, and is just meant for teach construction but not environments.
I want to be able to draw stock bedrooms, classrooms, parks, city blocks, etc. So please help. I look at all the burne hogarth books for figure drawings (inb4 hogarth a shit) but i really want some good books to look at for background making and texture
pl0x.

>a book that has more emphasize on CONSTRUCTING them than fully rendering them.
>perspective doesn't apply to CONSTRUCTING draw stock bedrooms, classrooms, parks, city blocks, etc it's just meant to teach CONSTRUCTION but not environments
>mentions hogarth and figure drawing because ???
i'm not sure you really know how to read since those perspective books are literally giving you the information to construct said
>bedrooms, classrooms, parks, city block
and how to create depth and distance between objects in a scene......
like what's in your pic is obviously just a bunch of cubic and cylindrical shapes in 1-point perspective.
That's what the books fucking teach you.
Jfc, anyways I took the bait and I'm now done laughing at you.
Now read those perspective books til your eyes bleed and then try Robertson's How to Draw.
>oh and as far as the "magical book with a collection of types of background" just google what you're looking for ya fag.

i dont think you understand. You think im a beginner who has not read perspective made easy and perspective handbook. I know how to create backgrounds
but i want a book thats a tutorial/visual library. i want a book thats filled with HUNDREDS of types of city block backgrounds and HUNDREDS of types of park images. You could say i could just google this, but i want them all in pdf form and in drawing form. Guess im just gonna have yo search them myself and compile them. perspective made easy has no background images at all except that bedroom pic. Thats what makes the hogarth books appealing to me, he has hundreds of different drawings in each book and doesnt just rely on textual explanations.
sorry, but fuck you and your smug anime bitches. way to not help me at all and put me down, cunt.

hi """raging-down-putting-smug-anime-bitches-anon""" here
>You think im a beginner who has not read perspective made easy and perspective handbook.
Yeah? Because that's what you sound like.
Anywho, I'm not changing my answer from before, but I'll go ahead and add on a book that I suppose will fit whatever niche of
>book that's a tutorial/visual library
it is you're looking for. (pic related)
It's on amazon.
And as for more "visual" perspective books try david chelsea's perspective for comic book artists or perspective without pain by phil metzger.
>You could say i could just google this, but i want them all in pdf form and in drawing form.
"Drawing form?" You mean black and white like a coloring book?
Get an interior design coloring book.
Or buy interior design books/subscribe to magazines.
Buy a dslr camera, go outside and take pics.
Then just draw over the pictures.
>find horizon line + vanishing points.
>draw furniture/people to said VP's/make your own props
>profit
But in the end you're still compiling images to reference later that could have just as well come from google, or other online sources so...
Anyways, did any of that help to clear the air dear anon?
