This is a project to showcase Kitbash3D’s new kit called “[Cyber Districts](https://kitbash3d.com/products/cyber-district)”. I had a blast trying to arrange all their assets into creating this Cyber dystopian neighbourhood packed with lights, people, noise and trash.

Lighting this was definitely a challenge because you want the lights to pop but also not overwhelm the entire scene by those. I also wanted to get away from the typical cyberpunk silhouette look that populates the entire cyberpunk artwork scene.

This is the AO pass for the render.

This is the before and after post processing in Photoshop.

Really sorry to disappoint you but unfortunately, there’s no easter eggs in here for this one. Maybe the next one. Cheers!

I’m posting a breakdown of how I did [Stranded](https://blenderartists.org/t/stranded/1404020/13) on my [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCfe88G251E_ayjTFnoPmSPw) Channel. If you haven’t subscribed, please do as I look forward to do more tutorials, breakdowns and timelapses in the future.
