I prefer it when people actually paint in photoshop, i.e don't import images or use effects and only use the brush tool and creat the image from scratch, this seems a little like cheating. Still its a nice image.

oo nice !! love the vid the tutorial was going too fast for me tbh :P but .. i love the work.

[wadehjb]

@gangstermafia Thank you! There is a realtime version of this tutorial on my channel which should be much easier to follow. :)

ok so beside the color over some cropped images what u got? i was expecting to see some really changed buildings or at least u could have removed the water and add some old road right in the middle.. very lame

It wouldn't make much sense doing something that complicated for a beginner tutorial.

Well, regardless of your preference this is how it's done in the industry as well. The goal is create the highest quality image as quickly as possible and photo-realistic through any means. To call an artist cheating for using the tools designed for his trade is insulting and nonconstructive. Excellent work, I love the mood. Like and early morning after a thunderstorm, just before dawn.

well what do you say? fantastic really! im more of a ''classical' or ''old school'' painter with a brush (real one) but have a great respect for work such as this and finding it very fascinating since the lord of the rings books i have. i love how in this vid out of all of them all that hard work in the first 2 vids really paid off. personally i find what you done with the scene was very creative and atmospheric, the lights where perfect and added to the feel with out over doing it. well done :)
