Description
Finally got this beast taken care of. Step-by-step for this piece: [link]A few of the topics I cover in here are: thumbnails, 3D block-outs, perspective, lighting, color, mood, using photo textures, and atmosphere. Let me know if there's anything that needs clarification and if you happen to use any of these techniques in your own work shoot me a link! I'd love to see what you're working on
Also, just a reminder I finally setup a Behance account this past week: [link] as well as a Tumblr which I gotta get updated tonight: [link]
Stop by and hit me up on either of those sites if you feel so inclined.
Thanks for checking in!

::EDIT::
Uploaded the full res .jpg and upped the contrast on the text. Should be a bit easier to read

extremely good and detailed tutorial. love your style and most did like you point out to not just google stuff because of copyright as well as to not shy away to use little helpers like 3D programs.
anyway, wonderful mood, i can imagine myself arriving and can almost hear the the howling of the icy wind.

Really thick tutorial man, you hit some really good points. I never knew how you worked until now. Doing the value sketches/thumbs is so critical for me now haha. Thank you so much for sharing this.

Thank YOU so much for the kind words. I'm thrilled that this was of some use to you. Those value sketches are key in my opinion to getting a bunch of quick ideas out fast ;D

well - this must have been exhausting, and i forgive your spelling errors - they weren't bad enough to make it unreadable, you know we have both seen worse lol

Holy cow that must've taken you forever to put together. Great job though! ~ Gotta go practice atmospheric perspective! That's something I really haven't spent any time on. lol.

It took me waaaaayyy longer than I thought it might. I know tut's take time to piece together but this one was rough. Lol. Keep on practicing. AP is a really fun thing to use once you get the hang of it.

This is an amazing tutorial! I just wish it was a little more legible. Low contrast between text and background and the line length make it really hard to read.

Thanks much! I've had a few other people comment on the same issues, so I'll be swapping out this file with a revised version shortly. Appreciate the feedback

Much better now. I am definitely going to try this 3D-thing. Thanks for sharing!
