Description


I've wanted to do this image for a long time now. Based on the 80's song "99 Red Balloons" by Nena. A war begins when trigger happy generals send planes to intercept a mass of unidentifed objects (balloons) just above the horizon. The conflict escalates as everyone wants a piece of the action, and by the end of the song there is nothing left... no fighters, no balloons, just a world in ruins. Lyrics to the song can be found here......... http://www.80smusiclyrics.com/artists/nena.htm Rendered in Bryce 5.5 No postwork at all. The cartoon look was achieved by re-texturing the city and a lot of radial lighting. CREDITS F18's - Planit 3d (I think) Dystopia city blocks - Moebius87 Ajrarn's Morphing Balloon - Freestuff

Sure makes us think Steve! Fine detailed city with buidlings ablaze and the hazy smoke of fires everywhere helps remind us, whatever the reason it starts, war is hell. . . Excellent !!!
