Default Just Carved Another.
I appreciate the tips on the other post I have. I made this side walk narrow at the steps and wider at the beginning. It makes the grass look more level instead of straight up and down. Very simple to do, I just didn't realize how easy.
Thanks again

There you go! A few quick tips and look at the difference.The stones as well look smaller as they go away from you, this all adds to the illusion you were looking for.A few tricks adds so much to a piece,,,good work.

much much better! Ice Cream You can even widen the very front out more...perspective is a funny thing, and once you get the hang of it, seems to come automatically.....I say that, but have been painting for 40 years or more! well....guess thats automatic ha haCowboy

Much better but, you door entry, on the right, you see it going inward but not on the left. Now if it is a matter of angle or prespective, then the steeple should show the leftside a little to coorspond to the doorentry. JHMO.
You have done a great job.

Your improvement shows with each one, but I think you've already gotten a recognizable thieme and style that is surely appreciated by those who get to see them in person.
Good work. Thor

Same with the left side of the building...

I agree with the others though on your progress, from what I've seen you post...great job.

you might try drawing (or carving) a 3/4 view, or a least a bit of an angle rather then a full front view, doing so will add a lot of depth and perspective to your pieces.

keep it up and keep posting your progress.Hammer
