Looks good! Though not all of the lines that need to be fully perpendicular to the horizon are, I feel like that's as a result of some general, understandable sloppiness, than a misunderstanding of the concept. (If there are any doubts, though: that third VP is at infinity (or, close enough to it, that it's safe to treat it as if it is) so those lines are all parallel. Since they're heading straight up, this makes them perpendicular to the horizon.) Anyway, feel free to move on~

thanks for the critique and reply but I'm still confused about the lines being perpendicular. Does it mean to make sure the lines that are coming from the horizon cross the vertical lines which are coming from the third vanishing point that isnt visible?

Not the lines that are coming from the horizon, the horizon itself. Here it is, on one of your frames: https://imgur.com/a/aQeHAdX The horizon is in blue, and the correction lines are in red. Notice how they intersect the horizon line at a right angle? The reasoning for it is explained here: https://drawabox.com/lesson/1/6/infinity I hope this clears it up~

Thanks for the clarification. I see what mistakes I made and I'll know to hold my ruler straighter so the third vp will always go to infinity.

Cottonwood Arts Sketchbooks

These are my favourite sketchbooks, hands down. Move aside Moleskine, you overpriced gimmick. These sketchbooks are made by entertainment industry professionals down in Los Angeles, with concept artists in mind. They have a wide variety of sketchbooks, such as toned sketchbooks that let you work both towards light and towards dark values, as well as books where every second sheet is a semitransparent vellum.
