    I might have said previously that I collect a few of Syd Meads artwork in books and publications and he has a number of sketch books that are quite difficult to get hold of but I have some. In there he has a number of sketches where he leaves the construction lines on them too and its very interesting to see them. Some of them are high perspective in a similar vein to your image.

    Compare this one for example:

    or another

    ohh I found another even more striking example:

    (Using spirit pens ! Anyone tried to use them ? I did once and they are impossibly hard.)

    So I think the idea is very old and very powerful and it does create some wonderful immersive interior designs and vistas that have a certain feel about them - which I like !
