STEP 9
The ship is now almost done. I clearly define all the edges to reach a fully finished look. To give a more photographic touch I place a texture on top of the painting with a soft light or overlay blending mode. You want something futuristic, that mimics the panels of a big sci-fi vehicle. Just writing something like "sci-fi texture" on google will give you tons of examples for this texture.
STEP 10
Before duplicating the ship let's take care of the clouds. Grab from the internet a random clouds picture with the right lighting and place it on top of the rough sketch you did before. Blend the picture with the background using the same white airbrush you used at the beginning to indicate the clouds. Edges need to be really smooth and slowly fade out.
STEP 11
Just some final refinements on the ship. Some lights to make the vehicle more exciting. I usually create them just grabbing random pictures of cities by night. In these pictures there are tons of small lights that you can cut out and put on your image with a screen blending mode. To enhance the effect you can put on top of these lights some really small lens flares as we did before. It can be even useful to create a black layer on top of everything, set the layer on color dodge blending mode and paint on top of the lights with an airbrush with a bright color.
STEP 12
The only thing that we need to do at this point to accomplish the concept is just duplicating the ship we made in the other locations. Remember to put a thin layer of white painting on top of the two ships far away in order to make them look distant.
That's it! Our sci fi concept is done! Hope you enjoyed the tutorial!
