Ballpoint Buildings
I can create an original cityscape using a mix of Modern and Medieval architecture style.
Despite Europe being one of the most developed, densely populated and e continents, Europe has surprisingly few skyscrapers, when compared to Asia and North America.
There are 218 skyscrapers (2019) constructed in Europe, 66% of them are located in – London, Paris, Frankfurt, Moscow and Istanbul. When skyscrapers began being built in the 19th Century – first in Chicago and later in New York – many European cities were already established with grand historic buildings and public spaces that left little room for large new structures; which led to many interesting differences in the architecture and layout of each city. Because of this buildings are smaller and closer together. Everything is more compact, within walking distance of each other because of the lack of transportation.

Requirements:
- 7+ verify of buildings - different heights, shapes, sizes, windows, roofs and brick.
- Must create value using the pen using different shading and texture techniques.
- Must have more than one row of buildings, overlapping the buildings putting taller buildings behind as if the city is built on a hill.
- Working with pen without having a plan can lead to mistakes, make them good mistakes.
- After you have your outlines add windows and doors, texture/shading last.
- Be careful not to smear your ink while working.
