Bert Monroy created this photo-realistic picture of Damen Station on Chicago's Blue Line using Photoshop.
From the website, on the details of the amazing pic:
Adobe Illustrator was used for generating the majority of the basic shapes as well as all the buildings in the Chicago skyline. The rest was created in Photoshop. • The image size is 40 inches by 120 inches. • The flattened file weighs in at 1.7 Gigabytes. • It took eleven months (close to 2,000 hours) to create. • The painting is comprised of close to fifty individual Photoshop files. • Taking a cumulative total of all the files, the overall image contains over 15,000 layers. • Over 500 alpha channels were used for various effects. • Over 250,000 paths make up the multitude of shapes throughout the scene.
Wow.
