Re: newb that need a little help
Try Perspective or Distort. Skewing makes objects into parallelograms, and warp will give you various shapes but requires a lot of accuracy. Perspective will give you perfect perspective but I find it hard to keep a baseline and just have a receding topline so I'd go with Distort. Just drag the top right down to angle it a bit. I think you should then try to add in a little bit or a highlight or shadow drawn behind the compass that gives it a false 3-d Effect because you'll want it to look like it's not a 2-d object being distorted. Goodluck
