Watercolour crayon on paper. Approximately a 4-6 hour drawing. Something is off. I think it is the placement of the elements. Thanks for your advice and all your opinions.

From what I can see, the perspective of certain parts of the background look somewhat off and makes them look smaller or bigger than they should be compared to other parts of the image.
Apocalyptic Chaos
The perspective on the battlements looks slightly off and one leg on the lady looks less foreshortened than the other.
I also think the shadows aren't being consistently applied to the background and makes it look a little flat compared to the figure.
But the colours are really vibrant and cool!

wonderful! the colors are super yummy!!! the only thing i would suggest is helping to distinguish the dimensions of the building next to the figure. As a casual viewer, I wouldn't be able to see if the tree is inside, behind, or on top of the building because the shadows are flat.
Your grasp on the human figure is very strong! I would recommend more studies on buildings in landscapes. Go outside and draw the houses or complexes in your neighborhood! Experiment with weird shapes like slides in a playground as well while you're at it. Have fun :D
