Okay let me break this down: This is a current piece I'm working on, and generally when I sketch stuff out I just roughly align stuff where they need to go, then if I REALLY feel like it feels off, I put the grids in to check. Do they align to horizon line/vanishing point? No.

I found an unfinished pocket shop sketch so I'm just finishing it instead -w-b

Notes on characters in backgrounds, but the reverse method.

My mood sometimes

Anyway, this is what I've been doing lol
