tutorials wanted for environment concept creation

#1

I am wondering if anyone knows of (video and other web) tutorials that specifically focus on environment concept creation?

I joined this Character-a-fortnight cafe and will have to do a perspective painting of my concept sooner or later and I have never done anything like it.

I do know about the basics of perspective (one and two-point, horizon lines, basically the stuff you get to know from reading Loomis).

However, I was watching a sample clip from the gnomon workshop by Feng Zhu about the basics in environment shots and I was thinking that there’s obviously more to creating convincing environments than only setting up a perspective.
Spending the 29€ atm won’t help me for the workshop at hand, though…:smiley:

So, if there was any free info on that (with video web tutorials multiplying by the thousands over the last few months) I would greatly appreciate any hints/links.
