Description This was done for EOW over at conceptart.org.
I.. hate painting cityscapes. My perspective skills are so bad, haha.. it was kinda frustrating at one point, until I finally nailed down where the buildings were and stuff.. I'm sure there are a lot of problems with this piece, but meh, with practice...

That's really, very awesome. I hope you don't mind my asking but... what brush did you use for the city? And what program? I'm sure it doesn't make a difference, but I'm always interested to know what brushes an artist uses ^^

JJH In reply to AndreaTamme [2007-06-17 21:16:58 +0000 UTC]

I understand, I'm also always interested haha. I used Photoshop to paint this, I have access to custom brushes from a couple other artists that I used here. One is just a flat brush that follows the direction of your tablet movement. I used that to block in the shapes, which took forever I might add. As for defining the shapes more clearly (i.e. shapes of the buildings), I used a combination of a square shaped brush and hexagon brush.. is hexagon 6 sided? Haha, whatever shape is 6 sided. As for detail, I used brushed that were simply several lines, like a rake.

Mid ground buildings are very good. The foreground looks a bit unfished in comparison though.

That's the wonderful thing about concept art it doesn't have to be perfect.
I really should begin to fiddle with concept art myself, now that I have more time on my hands.
I love that website you mentioned, great stuff on there!

nice landscape jeff. Is it your monitor that isnt calibrated? Cuz your images are always soooo dark. It doesn't have enough highlights~ This piece has really good composition, keep going

HOLY MOTHER OF SNAPPLE

hate it or love it it's the details and the feeling of a devastated city that makes it so awesome *3*~ I love the motion blur on the nearest helicopter and the smog, it makes me feel like I'm standing there staring at the destruction
