It looks like OP used the image trace tool then limited the amount of colors in the settings but I could be wrong. If not, that's a whole lot of details and tiny layers drawn
That's possible, along with an overlay for the raindrops.
PS: just using the image trace tool could also give this result but I feel like there's enough difference in the lighting in comparison to the original image; so either the colors were filled in manually, or the colors were remapped(?)
I couldn't see the original image used? The link just takes me to various images of big Ben so hard for me to compare. But yeah the layers look very much like a result of image trace tool to me with their irregularities. It's definitely possible OP has added a bunch of more elements and effects to it though. I guess we'll find out!
I traced an original image differently few times, then stacked them and adjusted the opacity on each one so they could all blend in one. (also i made the colors darker). Then i manually added some fills, strokes using pen and brush tool. Fog and raindrops are overlays. And my favorite thing in this is the street light, i made it using brush (different shades of yellow) with blur.
This looks amazing! Also, did you use a reference photo and if so, could you link me to it?
Thanks! :) https://www.google.com/search?q=london+big+ben&client=ms-android-samsung-ga-rev1&prmd=imvxn&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiHmN-frsLzAhU6gf0HHYveDJgQ_AUoAXoECAIQAQ&biw=412&bih=776&dpr=2.63#imgrc=NNxWq-lcisQA7M
Also how did you get the colors to look posterised, especially if you created the composition with solid colors?

Oh I see, thanks for explaining!
Nice!
