Alright this is what I have so far. Already im finding problems but I dont know how to go about fixing them. Any kind of help you could get me into finishing this would be awsome. Even a paint over would do, actually I'd really love to see a paint over to see from someone elses perspective. Im still kinda trying to study cityscape details to get this finished, looks like its gonna take me while if I do go about finishing it. So if you could help me in any way I'd greatly appreciate it, thanks.

Oh man that would be a sweet pic with the right digital coloring.. Nighttime, maybe rainy, lots of lights. Awesome so far.

This is a nice peice so far and will make for a good underdrawing to a painting when you are finished, but your perspective needs work, (as Jull was indicating)

The bulk of it is correct, but a few buildings have odd angles to their roofs. For instance the buildings on the left side have a strange extreme angle which shows that they were either ment to have triangular roofs, or more likely their rooflines were derived from that central vanishing point. Oh and sry about the line through the top of the large building on the right that one is actually correct as is.

Thank you guys so much, yea thanks for the link, i've been meanin to study more perspective. And Clandestine thanks so much for pointing those out to me, yea some of the tops are triangular but that caused some confusion, Ill work on that. I've got alot to work on and I'll get back to you when I have an update with details and such. Thanks again.

I've only taken a quick look at this, but I think your vanishing points are too close together for an image this size, unless your intention is for this kind of distortion. It's hard to tell because I assume not all of the buildings have square or rectangular footprints.

The range of view (i.e. the fraction of the distance between your vp's) that can be depicted in 2d without obvious distortion is quite narrow. So often it's not an issue of being "correct" (i.e. all lines go to the right vp's), but simply that you can't have vp's this close in an image this size.
