Hi everyone! I’m an architecture student with some Photoshop skills, and my professor recently showed me a graphic he wants me to recreate. I’m a bit stuck on how to achieve the green terrain effect and the red one too , and I’d love to find a quick and efficient way to do it. Any tips or suggestions on how to tackle this would be greatly appreciated!

What do you have as the starting basis? A blank canvas?

#

Green mountains are a height map with a gradient map applied

Im not sure tbh it was an example my proffesor gave me and wanted me to replicate, bit silly cause we never had advanced graphic class

I’m thinking the same thing that James is thinking with the gradients. You have your base, then your water layer (gradient brush as needed), then your greens (gradient brush as needed), then if those are mountains(?) apply that layer and then add all of your lines and your map key.

I found a brush that looked similar to the inspo pick. I than just did a bunch of brush strokes and than added some white pattern over it

Shouldn't your map correspond better with the local topography?
🤔

The green is more to show abstract analysis than topogrophy

#

Anyway Its done have to move to the next assaigment but thank you all for help and feedback 😄

The green ones seem to have been exported from 3D data. You could try to replicate it on a big green blob, painting on a layer mask with brushes of decreasing sizes.

(Sorry I originally did not see any answers)
