Nice drawing, overall. You've put in a lot of detail, but the perspective of the subject matter is off, making it look very flat. Keep practicing though, you have talent that will only get better with time and practice. :)

Really liked this, and the lack of perspective certainly showed us that it looked like an 'Haunted house' as was so eerie and strange. Best wishes.

The drawing lacks depth but the proportion is fairly good. I also think much of the shading holds merit. If you get a chance you might read up on linear perspective. Nice subject matter and those little things that accentuate your theme.

Not a bad lookin house, I like drawings done in charcoal, you can do a lot of fun things with it. All in all not bad, though.

it's a good concept piece. The picture, however, is not symmetrical, and depth perception needs practice. But, that's what it takes, practice. I like the shading, it makes the whole experience seem gloomy. Good luck, and keep practicing!

One thing I don't think you did before you drew this picture was a presketch. Don't be afraid to use other tools to aid you when drawing a picture. Try using a ruler during the first step to get the main idea and construction of the house, but don't use the same lines in the finished product. I would also recommend that you build your way up with graphite pencils, not charcoal.
