I was playing with the actual math behind it, and I noticed that foreshortening only really happens when things are very close to the viewer (not just the picture plane). so if I get about half a foot away from the screen, the car stops looking distorted.

Link is a bit broken tho  
And looks like i need not a goat. But a whole cow ;D  
Thanks again!

@redweasel  
Sure thing. Thanks!~ :3

hehe, seriously though, take a look at a tutorial on drawing a perfect cube if you want to see how stupidly complicated it is to figure out. to make matters worse, the distance someone views your picture at actually changes whether the perspective looks distorted or not, so it’s impossible for you to be sure it’s not. the vast majority of artists use the “just eyeball it and compare with photos until it looks right” technique instead of trying to figure out the correct geometry.

@redweasel  
Welp. Now i need a goat ;D

the car is too long, and should be shorter at that perspective. to determine how long you should make an object that recedes into the background, first you sacrifice a goat on the altar of ag’ihaptah then you pray to the perspective demons to grant you their cosmic ouiji board. the technique should be pretty easy to figure out from there.
