Coinhero's sketchbook

From such a low angle we would see the underside lips of the blue roofs and much less of the tops.  You just haven't got the vps in the right place on the horizon for the sides of the buildings facing the sunlight mostly.

Just take some of the parallels of the roofs from that side and see what VPs they end up at: pretty much everywhere but the actual horizon line!
They should go to generally the same vp if at the same rotational angle as each other or different VPs if rotated BUT on the SAME horizon line.
Unless you are going for a slight fisheye lens which then distorts everything and makes the HL curved and thus changes where VPS will lie.


Doing some perspective exercise refreshers will be a proactive thing you can definitely do to improve, while you decide what to do next if you decide to abandon this and hopefully distract you from beating yourself up about painting skills. :)

I think I get it now and with the current vanishing points the castle should look something like this
Thanks for the help :D this is getting a little messy I'm not sure if I should try to paint this with the correct perspective now and start something new. I'll figure stuff out now and post again some time today when I'm done.
