Having seen all the perspective work recently, I just had to try.
Couldn't face doing anything but a cube. This is in two-vanishing-point
perspective.

_.--' : `--._

`-:-'
Here's a 1-vanishing-point cube:

And, an attempt at 3-way perspective:
__.__
__.--' `--.__
L-._ _.-J
J `-._ _.-' L
L `Y' J
J | L
`. | .'
`-. | .-'
`-.|.-'
Thanks to Henry for the style.

Maybe its just me - but I don't like using characters with definite angles in
them to be a junction (the 'Y' here) unless the angle is almost perfectly
correct. It'd be ok for things that arent supposed to be so 'straight edged'
eg organic stuff - but in these you need the illusion of perfect angles etc.
Ditto the '/' - if the line isnt exactly going in that direction it looks
like a bent line rather than a single straight line.

Yeah - maybe looks a little short, but I could be wrong :)

Now try doing them without a line of symmetry :)
