Thanks a ton Mike for your effort! I will keep this short and sweet.

I finished the piece with the perspectives fixed: http://eeliskyttanen.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d5ohzfj

I think the problem was poor design rather than lack of fundamental knowledge. As I commented to David I was fearful about too strong one point in the centre, and because of that intentionally twisted the right side of the "canyon". I had a grid to work on with, so it didn't really leave room for easy mistakes. The one thing I did hastily though were the triangle things, but those are now fixed too!

I think one can definitely add quite many VP's. For example a medieval village with a lot of cluttered buildings would have huge amount of them. Correct me if I am wrong though. In this kind of a castle/ruins/huge structures piece that didn't quite work though, and I scaled it back.

Not to say that I don't still need to rehearse em basics as hard as always, but darn, after that stuff with "Pebbles" I will never ever make unintentional perspective mistakes again. Instead I will always check it up with a grid.

Again Mike, thanks a ton! Helped me to realize those stupid design decisions and fix 'em all.

Cheers

Eelis

Hey guys. Not much to share ATM except some noodling around and studies I've been working on between jobs etc. My daughter is into SHE RA right now so I though that I'd do a She Ra Sketch for fun, it's nothing special and I screwed up the ziptone effect I was going for because I forgot to add it on a second layer. GAH! Also, another WIP of the Al Buell Homage pinup from long ago. It's coming along but I don't have very good reference and I did not do a monochromatic version first which equals much time wasted.

Cheers!

We`ve moved on.... Hey CA folks. Dave , Eelis and I decided to move our conversations over to our own Blog under the same name HERE. I think we still will be updating our Sketchbooks and maintaining our individual presences here but for more info on what we are up to, now you will know where to find us.

Cheers!
Mike
