I have increased the perspective on this piece. Is this closer to what you were thinking?

I would add a bit of different shades of the blue on the top, make it look shaded/rounder.

Do you think the perspective on it is okay? I can handle adding color.

It looks okay on the map, so I'd say yes.  Looking right in that context is the acid test.

Mhm... Just work on the shading of the entire structure so it looks three dimensional.

Woah... I am not going to lie, that is a fantastic structure...

edit: The shading on this is superb... it really does look 3- dimensional...

In general, you want to back off the color saturation - it's a mistake so common that movie CGI professionals still do it constantly - computer colors tend to be too vivid and bright, and that doesn't look real.

I am assuming you mean the gold top correct? Then let me turn down the saturation and get back to you.
