Hey Charline B.R. what a really nice drawing so far. The first thing i notice is that it seems to me like a one point perspective and not a two point perspective. All lines are pointing to one point (behind the right tower). Or is the other point really far to the left?
What i see on your left tower is that the top of the cone is not in the center of the base of the tower. A vertical line need to run from the center of tower cilinder and the cone tip and bottom circle need to lay on that center line. I found a youtube video showing the principle: https://youtu.be/zkIYARAJVIA
The roof of the tower is constructed of 2 cones that are overlapping, but both cones have their center on the vertical centerline. I hope my description is helping you in the right direction.

Many thanks for the video, I checked out quickly and it's a better way to position the roof than the goofy way I used.
Yes it's a 2 points perspective, I tried to replicate a city in a game, but with on scale buildings and human-sized props, which gave me a very wide lens. Again it's the first time I really try to do a correct perspective by hand so I may totally have done poorly in choosing such distance ^^"
Again many thanks for your time and explaination !
