Hah, interesting stuff going on. ^^

I have to admit, it's a bit confusing to look at. There's a lot of different shapes taking place in different sections of the scene. On the one hand you have very geometric shapes like those hexagonal prisms and cylindrical pipes. But then you also have very "organic" shapes like the beanstalk colums and the wavy circus decoration at the very top of the page. =\ It kinda makes it hard to understand what the purpose of the room is - or more precisely, your average viewer would not be able to associate the items in this room with anything they've seen in real life. The whole concept behind a good background is it, well, stays in the back so we can focus on the character or some more specific subject matter.

It kinda looks instead like your room itself is the subject matter (this is made more evident since has so much detail and high contrast - even as it recedes further back into the distance). I DO like how you made the largest chunk of white be the platform in the foreground and then as we move back, the chunks of white become smaller and smaller, thus following a logic of changing scale/depth. I think what's kinda hurting the scene, though, is there's no one MAJOR commanding object to focus our eye on. Like, if you drew one of those two beanstalk closer to the center and up front, that would be the main object (or "first read" our eye picks up) before taking in all the other details- without that first read, our eyes just wander around the page, confused about where one would begin and end.

It.... takes time, no lie. At least you = trying!!

I really like the details and perspective. Nice angle and fine linework. Complex and well done.

Good job overall Dan. I see you spent alot of time with your perspective. There are a few spots its a bit wonky like around the hexagons in the far wall. I think the main thing thats not working is the lack of a focal point. Lets say you want the focal point in the midground, well then less detail would be added in the back and forground. Right now it seems opposite and my eyes are fighting over what to look at. Do another one, don't wait for 3 months to do it either or you won't learn anything.
