[@FuriouslyFurious]

For all that hard work in 3D modeling, it is nothing more than a 2D render that looks like a painting. IMHO, you could have made this so much more spectacular by doing a drone flyby type video at the end. 5-15 seconds of a flyby would have brought this up to an A+. I am by no means saying that this isn't amazing, because you definitely have skill and it showed.

7:29 how did you divide it to squares like this?

[@lasso8863]

A method I think could work is make loop cuts, on each place you want squares. And the press ctrl+b , it bevels the loop cuts you just made and then you need to drag untill you get squares ( make sure the bevel is only one subdivison, scroll your mouseweel to change that if it isnt one subdivison). Not sure if he did it this way but I think it might work. Hope I helped you.

not big on giving feedback but take this as you will lighting could be better, the image is really blended in terms of saturation & nothing really stands out, it feels dead, the lighting isn't doing much the focus of the scene isn't defined enough, i don't know where u want me to be looking the white misty background looks very odd in certain if not all parts of the image the characters on the right feel so irrelevant to the image i don't really get why they're there & it took me a minute to notice them in the first place i don't really feel or get any story from this image, it just feels random & a over used theme of a character standing somewhere with a big structure in the distance, nothing unique or interesting about it the forest part on the right looks odd ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i like the designs of the structures though 🙂

[@Nafiganado]

The architecture is too "rectangular": curvy shapes would look better.
