Create any City in Blender in 20 Minutes 

the level of skill, i'm speechless... lemme go back to rotating cubes real quick

If you cant come to the city, you make the city and the city comes to you.

I've watched quite a few of your videos and they are often comedic and self-deprecating in a humorous way. However, your skills truly shined through in this one. You definitely rock.

This right here is one of the reasons I love the internets! Just watching you work and think with Blender is soooooo helpful!! Great video! You're a monster artist!

Dude, this is pure gold.

two weeks in, and people are literally creating the outside.

13:30 You can select randomly the buildings by going in menu: Select > Select Random. And you can at bottom left adjust the seed and the parameter how much etc to be selecting. That should make easier to texture quickly lot of buildings.

WOW! I'm deeply impressed. This is JUST what I've been looking for. It's a ton to unpack, but I'll attempt it. Thank you very much for this tutorial.

My PC be like, "he better not get motivated by this !!!"

Create any city in 20 minutes and render it in 1 month

I am going to get on this one. Id say it will be a solid weeks work to get this right but I love these. Thanks for everything you do for us it means more than you could ever know.

I lived in SF for 10 years and you made that city look better than it will ever look in 20 minutes, from satellite imagery and 30,000 air conditioners. You are a brilliant artist man.

It would certainly behoove you to add in a key press window, so we can see what buttons you are pressing as your press them. Your tutorials have an incredible end product, but few of us will ever reach that point without knowing what you are doing exactly.

"Create any City in Blender in 20 Minutes"... 1 hour later and I still try to texture the roofs...

Thank you for creating this!!!!! Your efforts in making videos like this are very much appreciated in bringing the knowledge to the people!!

totally amazing. All of your tutorials are just crammed with detail.

This couldn't have come at a better time. I've been messing around for a week trying to do this, for the last sequence in my band promo. Thanks for this.

Always awesome to watch your videos! Just the intro: “Hope you’re doing great, staying healthy at home and looking forward to a fun project, because that’s what I have for you today.” Keep up making these amazing videos!!!😁

This is such a great tuto ! Thank you so much for sharing so much technics ! 🙏

This is honesty an epic way to make a realistic city. I love the final result you got!

THANKS FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! I WAS LOOKING FORWARD FOR THIS VIDEO FROM MANY DAYS!!

im trying to do this right now. Your tutorials are my favorite blenders ones on all of youtube. I have followed many of them , slowly, methodically. much love - from canada

This was awesome, thank you for making this 🙌🏼

I saw a few videos about creating a building or other small object based an the photo (I even tried that myself!), but recreating a part of the city? It's crazy. Amazing video

I was following along the tutoriol and had to stop at how mind blowing it was.

Wow, this is so incredibly complex. Here I was just looking out of curiosity how to 3D print a city. I guess I’d only need the first half of the video. But this is some mad skill!!!

Instead of making different building materials, you can add the "object data" with the random node, so it chooses different building for every object. Also you can make the colors different by changing the hsv

I really liked the way you added in those clouds, I might try that next time I’m in blender

This tutorial is amazing!! Thank you!!

Someone watching this: Hey, that’s my house

This is amazing.. I think i'll try for my home city as a complete beginner!

You're honestly the best with blender..

Wow thats rly awesome. Ive tried it by myself and after 2 hours I getting a nice result of my city (home) and with my house (where Im living in). Thats now my wallpaper and looks amazing. Thank u so much. Ive send my image to a print company and create a big poster for my wall. *love it* The textures of my house Ive created with a drone :)

Man I'm very grateful because you made this video. I love your video

well done! your tutorials are specific and work!

stay safe, stay alert. keep spreading knowledge and smile.

Love these tutorials you make. And really nice seeing an updated version of the city. This time around I might follow along and not just watch it. 😜

I watched this without skipping and man it was time spent well!

Loved the video. Gonna go over it and apply the lessons. One reason for going back is the fact you put it out there pretty fast... perhaps due to the amount of time your giving yourself to get the info out. But to me the delivery is a bit rapid. Otherwise... pure gold man. Keep up the good work... remained blessed!

I can't wait to do this when my new computer comes.

This is exactly what i needed..thanks bro

In Blender 2.9 kriege ich keine Bauwerke?

This is just Awesome!!!!

Omg this so freaking COOOOOL

this is wonderful tutorial. Thanks mate.

This is way too awesome! I will absolutely do this tomorrow! Whooooohoooooo

I appreciate this video so much! As an architecture student trying to juggle 20 different render programs for different projects - thank you!

This takes me about 6 hours to polish lol. Thank you for providing this tutorial.

Wow. 24minutes for what some would take 2hours for. Love the speed, love the work.

Dude,Thank you so much for your hard work and sharing, I'll keep following up your videos ... RESPECT from Algeria!

how to create a city: 1-download a city 2-done

Its amazing how good this looks considering how much of a hack most of it is

Omg man thank you SO MUCH for this tutorial!!!

Build it in twenty minutes, and ten years experience using all the tools. The tutorial is awesome and terrifying, I am just getting a feel for my Photoshop after ten years

CG geek could model any city in 10 minutes. I can't even model a cup that is in my taste in 1 day.

One of the best tutorials ever. Easy, straight to the point, and it covers EVERYTHING! Two different kinds of fog, UV Editing, Particles, cloud making, HDRs, I love it! Excellent work! One question (it may be really simple and I never figured it out): At 23:47 when you're showing this CG breakdown, how do you render different elements of your scene when it's behind another separate element? I see you're rendering the clouds by themselves, and even though it's at the foreground it is also being covered by some buildings. How did you render the clouds seperately? Again, I know you can restrict visibility in the outliner and check transparent in Film so it doesn't render the sky, but I'm trying to render elements to be blocked by whatever is in the foreground so I can composite easier.

you are my favorite youtuber for my stuff you just barely explain how to do things and I shouldn't have to look at another tutorial to understand the one I'm watching right now

This is just mesmerizing :O

My PC: *heavy sweating*

If anybody is having trouble on 11:35 where he adds the colorRamp and you're wondering how that viewer above the material output appeared. Simply press ctrl+Shift while pluggin in the texture node into the colorRap (Fac) you will see the viewer node appear.

Very cool tutorial! THANKS!!!!!

Pure magic right here, gotta learn to do it someday

Awesome tutorial!, Thank you I appreciate your time, experience and talent!

CG Geek: make a city in 20 minutes LazyTutorials: hold my beer

Awsome. Go zoom in and out there and you now have virtual reality. This is AWSOME man.

Great video from start to finish

no matter what channel why do i always watch blender tutorial videos for no reason

For anyone not able to select the rooftops using just the "y" key: just select one roof, hit Shift + G, select "Normal", then hit "P" and select "Selection". Would like to know how you did this Steve, the way you do it is new to me and doesn't work when I try it. Awesome tutorial!

Amazing work!!!

That was super cool, bro. Thx

In my country it is 11: 26 pm now So i will see this video tommorow But till then i am going to leave you a like bcz i know you make good content

I like this a lot. A little fast on the dialogue and steps but I can really use this. Great Job, where did you learn so much about Blender?

You’re my new hero! Thank you!

EPIC TUTORIAL, THANK YOU!!!

Love this tutorial. Even though I'm not using :(

Me: Trying to make this My computer: *Demonic screeching*

Stunning bro

that was awesome !!!!!

Me: "Woah that's awesome I'd like to try that" My computer: *wheeze* "Oh god please no"

I’m a huge city nerd, I’m satisfied

I have never been more ambitious!

Quite a coverage. Thank you!

Wait a sec. In that way I can build up sick envirements for my 2D animations

For those who have trouble with the lining the roof textures I have a solution: Firstly, download the image overlay like he did in the video. Next, open up a new blender project, import the terrain again (Without the image overlay). Then, import the image overlay with mapbox STREETS. Now continue with the video and put the roof textures like he did (It should be very easy now with little to no work) (But watch out, my image overlay was bigger than the map that I had selected so some roof textures that are in the image overlay won't apear in the map itself, thus, it will look like you aren't putting the textures on all the roofs but be assured you are).

Amazing, it comes grat to my project!!! thanks a lot dude!

as usual that's a great tutorial , congrats

I am struggling to get the ArcGIS token, once I sign up the token page loads blank, and I have tried different browsers

Geek: Create any City in 20 minutes. Me: making it in 2 hrs.

Mindblown🔥

FASCINATING!

Hey, can you help me? When I'm switching to Bing Satellites it's not showing. Also when I'm done importing the terrain and switch to Viewport Shading there's nothing showing also. Thank you in advance :)

The best thing is that it's still "low poly" render. Yet it shall destroy most of our PC's

I dont think what people say about you .. FOR ME YOU ARE THE BEST TEACHER

Technology never seizes to amaze me. I've been messing around with Blender for about..... drum role.... 2 weeks. And I'm still learning how to make a doughnut from Blender Guru. 😂

This is literally so beautiful. I just wish that the people in film industry would give a little more credit to the stunt & vfx department...

Need Help: 6.44, larger buildings: I cant get any further larger buildings - if I repeat the process I get the same buildings as before. What to do?

stunning. Thanks!

wow this is really sick & much brainstormed 👍👋

When I align the top projection with the overlay, I lose accuracy on one area as I drag the UV map over another area. Did you approximate yours?
