Medieval street study

[Sunbane]

Hey, I like that stuff a lot! =)

There are a few things that spring to mind as I watch these pictures:

The first is that it looks very...hand drawn. This is nice, but pure hand work often doesn't quite cut it when it comes to buildings. In my experience you'll get a lot more realistic scenery when you use a ruler (because...since these are buildings, we expect them to be angular and super-straight, even though in reality they are not).

The second is; In the moonlit one, I would have expected much colder colors and sharper shadows. You have two big towers there, of which at least one should cast a big shadow onto the street.

Nevertheless, it's an interesting study. I like the little changes you've drawn into each of the pictures. You could do something really cool with this - the only thing I'm missing in the daylight pics, are some people. =)

Nice stuff! Keep at it!

Thx, I'll take a look on these details... I did the line draw in photoshop, the illustration is 100% digital.

I'm with another one but It seems to be worst than the others:

Nice stuff! I like the last one the most, just needs shadow, and I like to see that it's got a lot of detail. More of that :) Also, the roof on the next nearest right house seems a bit modern?.. Maybe they had that sort of roofing then, I don't know, but I thought it out of place. thought I'd mention it at least OTT, great work

i agree. the last one looks the best to me as well. A little more detail and it will look very cool.


i love how you displayed the 3 others as well. love the winter one.

good stuff
