For this demonstration I have chosen an arbitrary placement
for the Nadir. The further the Nadir is from the subject
(downward), the less "forced' the perspective will look. "Forced
Perspective" gives the impression that you are viewing the subject
through a "fish eye" or "wide angle" lens of a camera. By moving the
Nadir downward, you will "flatten" the perspective giving the
impression that you are viewing the subject through a "telephoto"
or "long" lens.
In Fig. 5 & 6 we will start to construct the secondary features
of the subject(green dots). The first step will be to establish the
secondary vertical plane shown in Fig. 5. Then we will construct
or secondary horizontal plane shown in Fig. 6.
Once we have completed our construction lines we will start to
"draw" our final black outlines by using Adobe Illustrator's
"Scissors (C)" tool to cut the construction lines (in the
location of the green dots) and give them new thickness and
color attributes. For additional information on this line
technique go to the "Controlling Line Weights &
Quality" Adobe Illustrator Tutorial.

Continue the process of cutting the construction lines and
using Illustrator's "Eyedropper (I)" tool to sample the
attributes of your other black outlines. As was shown in
Fig. 7, make your cuts in the location of the green dots.

Now that you have completed the process of cutting out all of the necessary lines in out subject, you can eliminate the distraction of the construction lines. Cut them back using the "Scissors (C)" tool,but keep them handy in the event that you need to change the position of, or add additional lines to the subject.
The last step is to darken the object's construction lines,
and add weight to all of the exterior and outside
edge lines, to increase readability Fig. 10. See the
"Controlling Line Weights & Quality" Adobe
Illustrator Tutorial for additional information on
"line" control.
