Oops. I'd have responded earlier, but I didn't see you here.
I found a good site via Yahoo a while back, but I lost the bookmark.
The best book I have on perspective is "Creative Perspective For Artists and Illustrators." It is excellent. Kind of a "hard-knox" method of teaching. The author has the reader draw over and over basic shapes cut from paper about a table. Real ego-crushing stuff, which is always useful. Otherwise, his instruction for understanding and drawing in perspective are awesome. The book also covers a bit of reflection and shadow perspective.
Very cheap book; look on Amazon. |

I've been reading "Perspective For Comic Book Artists" by David Chelsea...it's really cool in that it makes perspective quite easy to understand, and has lots of weird angles etc often found in comic books 
(ooo...my first post...I feel deflowered :P) |
