I didn't check with your example, but most 2D artists just go with whatever looks good and disregard anything like correct perspective "warping" of objects, even though most know how to properly use vanishing lines. It sure is a fun challenge to recreate something as close to the 2D original as possible, but it also shows how much 2D artists can cheat and how much we have trained our brains to not question these errors when viewing 2D images. Once you try to recreate something in 3D you can't fool your brain as much as with 2D, and you see all the mistakes the 2D scene actually shows.
Attached is another 2D->3D recreation I'm working on. At first it looked like an easy scene, because most of it looked like straight lines and easy shapes. But it turns out that, the further you stray from the center of the image, the more "kitbashing" the artist uses and the less accurate something gets. I still can't wrap my head around the upper left part of the image, or the angle of the sun, because none of the shadow/light lines actually match up with the universally.
Distances are also a problem. While you can use references like humans, to properly gauge your scene, you don't always have that luxury, or basing your scene around a reference like a human makes the scene super huge, because it simply isn't realy and the character has been added later on without regard to fitting into the scene.
