Hello,
I would like to show you my another attempt to recreate the urban environment. As a reference I used photos of street Ku Farze in Old Town in Lublin.
Textures are from cgtextures. I mixed them using procedural masks made from Noise Textures. I took this idea from one of the tutorials made by Gleb Alexandrow.
I like this a lot. The texturing and the shapes of the architecture, and the contrast between light and dark. The image has a quiet feeling to it, but the birds in the sky give it a little bit of life that keeps it from feeling dead. I think showing it in black and white is a good choice as well. Good job, Pawel!
