Thanks for the helpful advice I got in the last thread.
I watch the Scott Robertson for vehicles but who can help me with environments? I’ve been trying to work with more basic shapes in perspective like building to help me understand/practice perspective. I focus on characters and perspective has always been a weakness of mine. Usually when I am doing a perspective drawing I lose the lines I’m working with among all the perspective lines. Any suggestion on how I can avoid that? And any suggestion that will help me on the next piece I do? I would greatly appreciate it! Thank!

Keep your perspective lines on a separate layer on top of your actual painting. Use a distinct color for the perspective lines, and then lower the layer opacity to 30% or so, or you can try simply changing the layer mode to something that will be visually obvious but not too distracting. And as you work, you can turn the perspective line layer off when you don’t want it to get in the way, and turn them back on when you need to use them as guides.
