It consists of elements done separately, The building, the Globe, the people and the Man of Steel.
Everything were done from the scratch using some reference pics, including the Daily Planet building and the globe. To achieve a hi-res quality, it was built "pixel by pixel", a long and exhausted process - i almost have zero knowledge of 3D softwares and the one i used to operate was kind of 'ancient' by today standard, not to mention i had already forgot how it works. I traced the reference photo in CorelDraw, creating blockings, added few elements here and there and finished it in Photoshop.
The sky was a collage of photographs i took with my digital camera. I waited for 3 or 4 days before i can get a clear sky because it has been raining a lot recently.
The people looking up were completely over-painted and modified from some photos i found at Corbis and Getty Images. I'm not really satisfied with the end result. Maybe i should ask some volunteers to pose as models.
Speaking of volunteers, i shamelessly inserted myself into the artwork, i couldn't resist the chance. The skinny guy with the newspaper, that's me...
holy crap, this is like what alex ross draws like. Wow... its really... breathtaking

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
