Cue the heavenly chorus...




I haven't been able to find the "crazy-quilt" drawing I got when I tried to use the Ch. 7 subdivision methods to make the reflection of a checkerboard tile floor.

In its place, I offer a new drawing of what I think is the ultimate answer: Using the admittedly rough Ch. 7 method to draw the object's reflection, then letting that suggest VPs for the reflected object, then drafting in accordance with those! With those VPs established you could add a tile floor to infinity if you wanted. Or anything else, just using the Ch. 7 method for establishing landmarks.

(If you have a station point established so that you can make sure those two new VPs are 90 degrees apart, so much the better.)

The above illo should make this clear.
