Painting Futuristic Cities
Painting Futuristic Cities is a digital painting tutorial in PDF format, available as an instant download after purchase.
The chapter focuses on building a futuristic city look in Photoshop, moving from simple shapes to perspective, lighting, and finished details.
You can use this as a reference for your own urban concept work and painting process.
Book Overview
“Painting Futuristic Cities” is presented as part of the 3DTOTAL.COM eBooks Series and is structured into multiple chapters by different contributing artists.
The chapter shown in the supplied text, “Wealthy City,” is authored by Robh Ruppel and documents a sketch-to-painting approach using software noted as Photoshop.
It outlines starting with an abstract composition, assembling and repositioning photo reference layers, establishing perspective and horizon relationships, then refining forms, lighting, and environmental details.
What You’ll Discover Inside
- Starting with a simple abstract composition and testing form with a few shapes and values.
- Using photo references as layered overlays, keeping background and foreground on separate layers.
- Establishing perspective, vanishing points, and scale before adding larger details.
- Carving larger planes and adding detail to conform to the perspective structure.
- Adding lighting and small scene details, including windows, clouds, and subtle illumination.
- Using custom brushes to populate the ground with people milling about.
Why This Book Matters
The approach presented emphasizes that photo reference can guide composition, but the painting still depends on artistic decisions.
By focusing on perspective relationships and layered refinement, it supports readers who want a practical workflow for futuristic city concept art.
It is also useful as a study of how lighting and small environmental touches can shape the final mood of a scene.
