This is something I see from many artists, even experienced ones who aught to really know better!
Again, these are simple drawings meant just to get the point across. The “Avoid Corridor Streets” tip from last time still applies here — which is more of something you’d worry about AFTER you do a basic planning of the city block you’re mapping out.
As always, this is a tip to make you aware! Your own observation in real life is what will really help the most with this kind of stuff. Enjoy!

A monthly animation contest, the winner is reviewed by a professional from a high-profile company. The review is always interesting, the best entries great, and the notation pretty harsh (that often surprises me, it’s not dA is the least you can say).

I thought y’all might be interested in the new video by my (extremely talented) artist friend Tess Fowler. The topic: How to draw boobies! There are some good tips on how breasts actually work, and a few Escher-girl-style critiques, too.

Thanks for sharing this! A lot of people have asked for tutorials like this, and I’m sure they’ll find it very useful. :)
