Everyone, Your way of working is interesting.
Why hasn't this forum been created long ago ?

Let me introduce the way I draw.





Step 1
First, look at the picture of the building.
Calculate from which angle I want to draw.




Step 2

Draw a picture with Photoshop.
I use a pixel brush. I work on a 1:1 scale.

(1) Draw the frame of a building other than the window.
The color of the building is also matched at this stage.

(2) Coat the windows.

(3) Add a multiplayer layer, and apply light and shade to the parts of the building that have different angles.

(4) Add an overlay layer, overlapping effects or images that can make the building colorful.





In this way, I generally work on several buildings at once.
In the case of apartment complexes, they work all at once.
It's 11 similar buildings, but it's subtly different.
These buildings took about four hours.

This type of apartment is one of the quick and comfortable shapes.
However, I get tired of drawing this kind of shape.

Number of windows...
I guess the number of blocks horizontally, but I tend to ignore the number of verticals.
I like to work in large quantities, so...
It's going to be too hard if you try to match the number of windows.
Also, as long as you're working on a 1:1 scale, it's hard to match the number of windows because of the pixel limit.

I tend to ignore some of the details that are too detailed, but I tend to maintain an important and overall point.



This building took about four to five hours. I don't like the results of the work...
