Like I said, it'd probably be best that, if you're doing perspective practices, that you start working on adding in smaller details. Your perspective itself is okay, but the things you draw often don't look like it's really there because of how bare-bones it is. most staircases are not minecraft blocks, they have a bit of artistic design to them. As far as problems with the picture, the overhead lamp looks off, but there's an easy trick to drawing circles and such in perspective;
1. Where you want the cone shape of the lamp, draw it as if it were a square or a box.
2. Draw cross-hairs inside the square/surface of the box. Then draw it diagonally, almost like the british flag.
3. Draw the circle within the box, so that the 4 walls of the box are touching the edges of a the circle.
In short, it should look like this.http://www.automotiveillustrations......e-fig7-8-9.jpg
Having everything else be neatly drawn and executed and suddenly having a chicken scratch object is not acceptable. Jesse's knees seem a little out of perspective, but overall he's fine. One thing I would suggest is not just doing sketches anymore, but actually doing finished pieces. You're at the point where you don't need to constantly improve on your perspective with tons of sketches, and it would help if you worked on doing finished pieces as well as sketches.
Also, work from photos, so your scenes look more realistic and organic, because the smaller details can sell a picture.

I'm not 100% sure what you mean by warped, but it should be altered to fit the vanishing points. I was saying how you can create an ellipse by creating it within a square. As my Soviet-Trained drawing instructor said, "If you can draw a box, you can draw anything within it". And it's true, if you can draw a box in perspective, you can draw any shape in perfect perspective by utilizing the box.
if you need a break from backgrounds, take a break for a few days, draw some other stuff, then leap back into the work. You won't improve if you don't enjoy your own art. You will burn yourself out.
Persionally I can't draw people but I can draw backgrounds especally buildings because I'm an architect's son.
