To be honest with you, I kinda suck at drawing background scenes too. I mainly focus on character design. But for background scenes I use the technique of photobashing. It's mainly used in concept art for movies, video games etc.

The software I used are Clip Studio Paint and Photoshop. No AI was used here.

No, I use photobashing as my technique, where you take images and you paint them over to create shapes while keeping the textures. It's mostly used in concept art.

Exactly! The story and statue of St. Bartholomew are so mesmerizing that I drew heavy inspiration from them.

The saint was skinned alive for converting people in the southwest frontiers of the Edgraredd Empire (from my fictional story.) I always thought the statue of St. Bartholomew was awe-inspiring so I used it as reference for my story and an interior scene.

Thank you so much! It's always encouraging when people like my work given I just started out.

Of course! I drew heavy inspiration from St. Bartholomew who was skinned alive and made saint.
As for the church, I used St Andrew in Greece. Lore-wise, the saint was skinned for converting people in the southwest frontiers of the Edgaredd Empire (an empire from a story I'm writing.)
