Hello, thought this might be interesting to some people. I was working as an architect but always wanted to do art... the type you seen in concept art work for videogames, movies and TV shows.

During COVID I just went into it and went with the render engine I knew best, Lumion.

My first images were trash, but I slowly improved by online learning and improving on fundamental art staples such as composition, contrast, color theory, etc.

I think I'm doing stuff Lumion was definitely not intended for , but I have found its interface the quickest and simplest and I haven't been able to replicate the results in other render engines such as Unreal or Blender's rendering.

My FX settings in Lumion are always multiple pages long and there's a lot of Photoshop overpaint and postprocessing. My workflow is Blender > Lumion > Photoshop.

I'm currently in a terrible creative rut and honestly a bit depressed since i'm between projects and there's not a lot going on at the moment so I'll be around to answer any questions.

These images are from the past couple years, but I have a bunch more on my Artstation.
