Tokyo Alleyway (WIP Project)
New WIP project of a Tokyo Alleyway. Thought I would upload it from inception to completion for those that are interested. Also a good way of keeping myself motivated!
Still WIP working in balancing the lights and grounding the area.

Current modular kit and props, will update as I go along.
Condensed Moodboard from multiple boards. Just for you to see what kind of reference I'm looking at
Blockout of an initial alleyway layout
Super scribbly paint over to establish shapes. Not pretty to look at but gave me exactly what I needed.
Putting in basic shapes to the modular kit
Updating shapes and establishing early light sources/props
Updating shapes
Continuing to block things out, started refining props. Getting a feel for the ground and where I want cables etc to be.
Started to feel as if I was losing my hero shop. Opened it up to see more of the inside, better lit and focused on making the surrounding structure interesting/different from the other buildings.
Still *very* wip. Made some bold choices with my hero shop, added a wedge inset bar on the left, reduced some of the box signs etc. Tried to "future-ize" my hanging lanterns. Very WIP but with some big changes so an update
Still things that are incomplete, shifting around etc. But I'm having a lot of fun with it.
Still WIP. Pushing ahead though, testing out my lanterns etc. Having thoughts about the Fish neon in the back, might have to go!
