Hello All (and especially acash93) – I got an inquisitive question about roof design from acash93 on YouTube this morning (hello again) and rather than a simple reply (which they did get back from me and a redirect to here) I drew out the explanation for a better understanding. I hope this helps.

If you are interested in seeing more explanations of drawing in perspective, please visit more of my videos on my YouTube Channel Instructional Videos HEREhttps://goo.gl/8lT00x or on my website to the right of the screen near the bottom – Videos and Prezis.
