How to draw roof pitch in perspective.

How to draw a house with a pointed roof in 2 point perspective. Draw a house step by step duration. As aforementioned there is no standard pitch of a roof. What you have so far is the part of the chimney on the near side of the roof.

This can be the trickiest part. We will use this to create the triagular part of the roof. Find the middle of both the front and back side where the top of the roof will be by drawing diagonals from corner to corner to create an x on both the front and back sides. Step 12 draw a line from the front vertical line to the right vanishing point.

Roof pitch refers to the amount of rise a roof has compared to the horizontal measurement of the roof called the run. Express roof pitch as the ratio of the amount of the vertical rise of a roof or rise over the corresponding horizontal distance or run you write the pitch assuming a run of 12 inches thus the ratio would describe how much a roof rises for each foot of the run. Carry this line beyond that point up into the sky of your composition. Draw a line from the front top corner of the wall to the top of the line you drew to set up the height of the roof.

Vertical lines through the middle. Draw two lines to use perspective when drawing a simple building draw a straight line across your paper. Step 10 draw an x to all the corners in the back square. Step 11 draw a vertical line thru the center of the x and draw the front one as high as you want the roof to be.

Draw line b parallel to the edge of the roof this is where the chimney intersects the roof. The line will represent the horizon and points at either end of your line will be your vanishing points. Draw construction line a toward vpl this is the top edge of the front face of the chimney.
