"Alright on this one we are going to do a tube instead of a box. In the past we have been working with boxes, and I am going to show you haw to make a tube using a tube of some kind or a spherical shape. We do this by putting the box into a two point perspective. So let's get started, okay so now that we just got done showing how to cur through a box so we are going to start on other objects like spheres or something that is not a square. Well, that can get kind of tricky so I am going to show you how to do it in two point perspective, just so we know how. I am going to be showing you everything in two point perspective so you will always have something that is familiar to look back on. So we are going to start again just like we always do with the horizon line it has two points. So you have your horizon line and your vanishing points. Okay now that you have that let's start with a box, but soon it will not be a box and I am going to draw kind of light so we don't get too confused. Now let's pick a point on the front of the box just like we always do and let's start building a box how we normally would. I usually like to start from the point here rather than all of the way back here, some people start from there but it's easier and less messy if you do it this way. I always start from the center to keep it nice and clean so I don't have to do it over later or whatever."
