Hello every one.i have worked on some projects recently.which i need lots of comments to improve my skills.
Basically this is two version for one project.thats why the context is almost the same.

Hi Maryam, well I like both images , but here are my comments
on the first one, I can see clearly a mirror cloning on the clouds, wich I think are too big for the overall scale, also the lighting on the grass and on the trees I think it's too bright
on the second one I would add some color to the night sky , just to make the scene more interesting , I think you have some problems with linear perspective in both images

Hi jamie.
Thanks for the comments.yes i have some problem in this perspective.&
so i cut the final image it turned out much better.
about the trees .i have no idea how to show the depth & darken them in terms of their distance to the camera.also i tried to put shadows on them but it turned out very bad.also .... shall i do them one by one?

i think i should paint them all.its my weakness. i dont have much experience in painting.thats why i use lots of images.but i am learning.
on the other hand, as long as it is an architectural illustration i cant use fogs &
mountains & hills.i cant use detailed building close to the subject & i cant go for a dreamy style too.also,i have tight deadlines.it is difficultttt....

i know my s shape road is hitting the buildings...but i dont know what should be there!

any tutorials...references...?
