3D Fundamentals Tutorial 20
From Chilipedia
Projection matrix! Because why solve a problem with a simple solution when you can use a complicated one! All joking aside, matrix encoding of projective (perspective) transform is widely used so you gotta get familiar with this shit.

Pindrought (Jpres) from the forum whipped up a visualization tool that helps with projection and various other transforms as a companion to his own 3D series. You can check it out here.
