In 2023 we're going to do a challenge.

There's a new letter every two weeks, starting with A on Jan 1. During that fortnight, we'll play at least one game that starts with that letter.

(Yes, we have all the letters covered in our collection. Digits are spelled out, so 7 Wonders is filed under S.)

Who's with us?

I couldn't find a good reference diagram of the relationships between types, so a while ago I made one.

If a car depends on the keys being inside to start, what would happen if you threw them out the window while speeding down the freeway?

Il m'arrive de réaliser des perspectives à deux points, et donc je valide que l'utilisation de l'élastique comme guide pour créer des lignes parallèles aide vraiment à la réalisation des perspectives à deux points.

La perspective à deux points est une méthode de dessin qui utilise deux points de fuite sur la ligne d'horizon pour créer l'illusion de profondeur dans un espace bidimensionnel. Elle est couramment utilisée dans les dessins d’architecture et de décoration intérieure pour représenter des objets de manière plus réaliste.

Étapes à suivre :

1) Commencez par tracer une ligne horizontale pour l'horizon et placez deux points de fuite à chaque extrémité.

2) Utilisez l'élastique pour relier ces points, créant des lignes diagonales convergentes vers les points de fuite.

3) Dessinez des lignes verticales pour les objets, en veillant à ce qu'elles s'alignent avec l'élastique pour maintenir la perspective.

Up and at 'em, people! These cannonballs aren't going to run themselves!
