i am trying to evolve as an artist
this {for those who already have a niche} can be rather difficult
i am proficient at figure drawing, organic form, mecha, etc....
i really need tips on architectural illustration
and environments
if anyone can offer help it would be very much appreciated

There's a book I like, which aside from containing a wealth of architectural-stylee drawings, is also full of good colour techniques. Oddly enough, it's called "Color Drawing". I suppose you could buy it on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0471292451/qid=1069628032/sr=2-1/ref=sr_2_1/103-4013083-4064668

Aside from that, the route I took is to pick up some solid perspective skills, then learn the same way you learned figure drawing (i'm guessing): life drawing!

Cheers,
Tony
