Oh wow, this style is such a good fit for his character as well. Awesome work, love the atmosphere! :)

Thank you so much! I really need to do more atmospheric stuff like this. It's so much fun to just sit back and do. It can be challenging but it's worth it.

This one's really appealing! The detail on every little thing, the reflection of the water on the ground, and the people looking lively. Really great atmosphere, very well done!

Thanks dude! This is actually the first picture I've done where I try to depict the presence of crowds of people. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be.

Very colourful and vibrant, a very nice aesthetic!
Also thanks for the recommendation, liking his works.

Thank you grim! I am particularly attracted to the vibrant situations reality presents. Rainy urban environments are especially scintillating in my head, because my vision IRL has really strong halos around everything at night. It's mostly a flaw for anything useful (like reading, judging distance) but it's made me really enjoy high dynamic range situations like that.

Great!

Also Cyberpunk

Oh wow, the wet reflection effect is just amazing!

Thank you Rif! I missed this comment earlier but it is much appreciated :]

Gosh; the details! <3

Dude... You did an awesome job wow! Very kool!

Thank you StealthWolf! I certainly am open to suggestions. I am also not entirely sure what I will put in there either xD

Every now and then an artist posts something that makes me stop and stare. This is one of those. Stellar work!

Aw man thanks! I'm glad I made this a very high resolution file. I might be able to make a good, sizable print out of this and post it in the MFF gallery. I still need to decide.

this is just wonderful... I love the way you caught the wet reflections - that had to be tough...

Cheers! It was definitely tough. I employed some tricks to get the diagonal tile to fade away in perspective (used a diamond pattern of guide lines I made and transformed into a trapezoid aligned with some perspective lines I made). I was envisioning a viewer eye with zero barrel distortion so all vertical and horizontal bits are just "as is" without any other perspective points. The last street scene I did that was similar to this was back in early February and I used 2 point for that one. Uggghhhhh. Was very tedious. Photoshop is not the best thing for complex stuff in perspective.

I am always amazed by what a serious artist can do using modern tools... and for you to put that in words - wow; my head is swimming...

The lighting in this painting amazes me. Really a stunning job! =O!!!!!

Your comment is much appreciated! The environments you do have a sort of dedication to intricacy that I thought about a lot when I was making this. I was thinking, "Welp, this won't be a big explicit city, but let's see if I can make it seem somewhat intricate with as broad sweeping blotches as I can for the background."

personally I think this is one of your best works, given the fact how you managed the entire illumination and the reflections of the area, with a good distance, looks like a real photography, a very wonderful work man!

Cheers Kaliber! You mention distance which got me thinking. If this were in an art gallery setting, how large do you think a picture like this should be? Let's say it existed in a booth-type setting where the average viewer was standing maybe a meter away upon getting first glance (among lots of other pictures).

I have no idea about it, sorry. But you might want to start looking for resolution formats if you want this image to be printed somewhere.

This is great! Awesome mood.

Thanks man! I'll likely be doing another urban one of some sort in the next couple of days. I found a rather inspiring style of concept art the other day and I'd really like to try to apply it more.

looove the lighting and reflection in this <3

Great use of color. Cities can be great studies of color and reflections!

Again, great post-storm representation w/ thick borders, dark shading, broad strokes, muddled reflections, etc. =) GJ.
