Coinhero's sketchbook

[Coinhero]

the castle is more consistent now, but some roofs still don't go to same vps (closest building to us in centre for example). Also, all ellipses of the conical roofs and the ring wall should also match the perspective. This also brings up the choice of vps: if too close together it can create a lot of distortion in the resulting image which may be too extreme.  I'd recommend based on how you seem to approach things that you do some perspective exercises and reading to nail down your understanding more. Specifically, understanding how to rotate objects and constructing/troubleshooting ellipses.  Scott Robertson's How To Draw has all you need.
It's a challenging image and involving architecture so any persp mistakes will be especially visible. Easy to go wrong!
This is exactly why you should nail the basics in your initial sketch before rushing to rendering. Messy sketches for idea generation are fine, but they don't make for good technical bases to work on if you don't address basic problems up front

yea I kind of half assed the whole thing I was sick of that painting and just wanted to get whats wrong and get it over with :D. I have Scott Robertson's How to Draw but haven't opened it in a while (not counting yesterday and today). I think starting a new painting that has the stuff I struggled with on the castle one would be more fun that grinding so yea I made this thing today

the perspective is pretty close to the castle one but this time I went with a horizontal composition and I've never done a crowded scene  so this should be pretty hard (too hard prob). Sketch is a bit of a cluster fuck but it (mostly) makes sense in my head.
