so now I have gotten my thumb out of my @ss and finally posted a pic here. Well it's nothing groundbreaking. I'm trying to get a hang of using perspektiv lines but it looks a little bit fish eye right now, because I havent used big enough pic when I did the sketch.
oh, please, crits and comments. I won't do anything more with it but I will have it in my head for the next pic. And thanks Jim for your time. I really appreciate it.

you know, its funny.. I dont really have anything to say about it. I like the effect you were going for.. I like the whole silhoette thing.
keep working at it.. perhaps the only thing I could crit it that the perspective of the shore line seems wrong.... hmmm |

kinda nice in an "unperfect" way, reminds me of the Charlies Angles ending where they are at the cliff side with the tower bird hut thing up top  |

Well I am defianatley no expert on perspective, but it looks like you are using a three point perspecitve here with your horizon line set below the top of the tower yet above the cliff.
What I think is messing up your shoreline is the angle of paint where the water meets the shore. It messes with the illusion going on with the Vanahing points.
The other thing I, well i think that's enough since I'm not really sure if I'm right about the perspective.
Overall I like the color pallete and the composistion. can't wait to see your next one. |

hippie: damn..did I really screw up that bad? I used the horizon at the horizon so to say. And I'm not really sure what you mean with the shoreline? The end of the cliffs you mean? Thanks anyway. I can upload the sketch if I have it left so you can see it to.
I never though I would get credit for the komposition. Thanks.
edit: Added some..
