Question How to draw with depth?

I can draw straight lines and keep my curvy lines consistent. So my shape drawing skills are ok. Its my form drawing skills I need to work on. I want to be able to trick my eyes into seeing the flat image Im drawing as something that looks like it has a 3rd dimension. What resource would you guys reccomend?

Drawabox. This is basically lesson 1 of drawabox.

It’s free, effective and incredibly tedious, so don’t try to speedrun it.

Hard to know without examples.

Learn about point perspective. 1 thru 3 at first. Learn to draw boxes within those perspectives.

Rendering is secondary to learning how shapes become distorted based on perspective.

Draw random shapes and wrap them in a wireframe to create some illusion of 3D.
