| Remember to put a lot of debris and dirt fall off the pyramid when it flies to show off it's moving. If it's all clean and stuff it'll look like a floating primitive. Unless it's a bitchin' spaceship with loads of detail like a borg cube split in half at the space divider. |

This is just one point perspective. The blue lines are to set the perspective. The red lines are horizontal running parallel. I use the green lines to find the center of the pyramid. Then you the height is determined by drawing a line perpindicular to the horizontal lines. Hope this helps
By the way I did this real quick, so all the lines are not perfect and it throws the shape off a little, but you should get the idea.
