Final Product What You'll Be Creating

In this Tuts+ Premium tutorial, author Mark Mayers will take inspiration from the Inception movie of a few years ago. The film used breathtaking special effects to create a world of impossible reality. This concept is by no means new, in fact the most well-known illusions of reality were created almost a century ago by the Dutch graphic artist Escher. His woodcuts and lithographs featured impossible constructions, explorations of infinity, architecture and tessellations. This tutorial is available exclusively to Tuts+ Premium Members.

    Looks really sweet

    • yeahpsd

      not really. final image looks meh

      • Mike Owens

        I agree, the perception just seems off – if it was further in the distance, that would help.
        Also a lot of repetition in the buildings. Doesn’t sit right with me.

        Premium though? I dont understand it. All the general tuts given are way below this sites usual standards. A joke really.

  • Ace

    The perspective is really, really off. That should be basic for design work, that 1-point perspective be handled correctly, this has two different vanishing points.

    This image/tutorial is a terrible example.

    I wanted to make a photo manipulation like that after I saw “Inception” but it seemed hard so I have postponed it … so I think the image looks nice even if they are problems with the perspective, vanishing point and so on…. maybe the author made that mistake deliberately :)

  • aMs

    Agreed on the perspective issues; besides, the lighting on the characters looks kinda fake and thier gesture is pretty weird
