i would try to see the full place even outside the canvas to better draw it correctly
Hey! So good practice! Makes me want go to a cafetería and do the same! I don't remember when was the last time I drew outside :,) Anyway. You could start by doing a general sketch using only straight lines. This will allow you to establish the horizon line and determine where your objects are converging. It doesn’t need to be complex—just a small, quick thumbnail. It’s essential to clearly identify your vanishing points. They can be inside the page, outside the page, close to each other, or far apart, but you need to know where they are placed and how high or down the horizon line is. After that, you can move on to drawing with curved lines. Whether you’re using 1, 2, 3, or even 5-point perspective, objects must always converge toward their respective vanishing points, whether those vp's placed on the horizon line or above/below it. In your drawing, the lines are going in multiple directions, which makes it difficult to read. I interpreted your drawing since I’m not familiar with the café layout. Notice how the objects on the left converge toward both the central vanishing point and the left vanishing point, while the objects on the front wall follow the curved alignment created by the lateral vanishing points. The amount of curvature is up to you. If you want a stronger “fisheye” effect, it’s recommended that the four vanishing points (left, right, top, and bottom) follow a curved structure. You can also keep the central and lateral vanishing point lines straight while curving only the vertical lines, and you’ll still achieve a dynamic effect. Take a look at these examples and observe how the objects converge toward their vanishing points: https://mx.pinterest.com/pin/24347654231685088/ https://mx.pinterest.com/pin/381187555985052266/ I hope this helps! PS: If you’d like, feel free to send me the photo on Discord (if you happened to take one). I’d love to see it, hehe.

Trying to incorporate stuff I learned from portrait road. Drew my OC this time. Struggling with keeping face looking the same in all angles (and fail :x)

Hey everyone! this is my first post here - I’m super excited to share some of my art with you all! I really want to improve my compositional/perspective skills during this month’s challenge. But my main goal is just to have fun and make cool drawings :D - I appreciate any feedback you can give me for my first entry for the challenge :D

One thing I constantly struggle with is rendering it always feels as if I’m missing a step or theirs a gap between my knowledge. Feel free to critique my lighting, shading, and etc.

WIP Jay Enhypen
I am struggling with capturing his face from my refrence, I made a mistake with choosing my reference a bit, I chose the refrence pose where the face wasn't fully visible and used other refrence for his face so I had to adjust the face angle and how he is looking at the viewer which led to facial structure changes, I can't add my reference in this site because it doesn't support more images. I want you to help me with how do I make look more like Jay.

Page 2 (day 2) Trying to be consistent with the challenge. In this drawing, can someone teach me how to make simple backgrounds? ( Other adivces is good too!)
