Started picking at this one… laying in some base textures :slight_smile:

#2

Another WIP, Kinda been busy to hit this much… But hopefully I find some time this next week to work on it.

When I first looked at the model render, I felt like it seemed a little industrial particularly the FG left and maybe I could push that &…
I remember driving through a city once where they were building several skyscrapers at once…it was a pretty cool visual… guess I want to try to attempt that …

#3

those buildings under construction are really dope! maybe too many cranes focussed on 1 building in the background, but its definitely rocking.

#4

Thanks man,…
I appreciate the feedback… :slight_smile:
Kinda based the cranes and construction off some ref…But a did weigh into what is too much and distracting to a point… I’ll be sure to make some adjustments… :wip:

:smiley:

#5

Yeh I just find the middle building with cranes too much, Really like the right building with the cranes! just enough and believable!

#6

Heyo Daniel,

Looking good! I like the color palette so far. I do agree with Bo here with that middle building. Could be too high and big in scale for those cranes there as well.

#7

Thanks for the feedback Bo & David!!.. It totally helped!
:love:

#8

Guess only a few days to go already!!! … :scream:

I changed a few things up
I’m still cranking away on the lighting, clean up, blending in, and holes to fill :wip:

Heres my final…

Had fun this month and I really continued to learn a lot… I definitely spent some time dissecting reference and studying details within a skyline. Which I needed and is great practice. I tried to stay away from my personal demons that I usually get into with working off a 3D render… which are the easy out textures that tend to make most of my past work look a little like blocky 90s video game-ish :slight_smile:

Lots to figure out yet… but I really enjoyed this month…

Good luck at all :slight_smile:
