This looks really good, would it be possible for you to share some more details on how you made it?

Thank you and sure! A majority of the buildings come from Kitbash3D and a few in the background are personal made ones for a pack i sell. I have 6 different volumes and a night time city HDRI, as well as multiple photos of city streets behind the buildings on both sides to add some lighting to make it not feel so empty. The people in the scene come from the Population addon by bProduction. i put rain along the entire foreground, and i added a clear umbrella to everyone in the foreground to have some lights bouncing around. This took like 15 minutes to render at 8K and finished in photoshop for color grading and adding some extra flares!
