Post apocalyptic city matte painting progress

Hi there!!!! I would like to share the process of my last piece, a post apocalyptic city shot, trying to get more realistic, further from my usual super stylized way of designing and more VFX-ish and closer to the matte painting realm.

This has been a funny one, started as you can see with a tiny sketch in the corner of my notebook, you can even see the notebook horizontal lines. I saw some potential in the composition so I decided to take it further in a super rough tonal sketch until the value structure was working. Then start finessing and photobasing to bring the detail. I had a little bit of art directing from my friend Lorenzo Tosi, which made an awesome improvement and then to the final!!! Hope you guys like it!!! I have learnt tons! :D :D
