In Exile / Town-without-hope by efron_241
Open full image in new tabDescription
What we see is Goliath going in exile.. But what I also wanted to show was a desolate world.. In my mind it was from the start a look down from above image.. but originally I had a sea in mind with a lonely ship waiting.. while working on the sea. it seemed a bit dull .. True.. "empty and desolate".. but I decided to make a little town in the distance on a different shore.. this slowly grew into this "town-without-hope".. A river lost it's water a long time ago when sand from above kept blowing in.. the old harbor became shallow and a new one had to be created.. No longer connected to the river but only by the sea.. filling it with it's water with high tide.. but when the walls on the hill broke down over time, sand blew into this new harbor too.. and the city got abandoned.. as it became the "town-without-hope".. a ghosttown
Some might expected blood at the end of the story, others a kiss.. but this is a more open end.... Have a good week..
Ps.. I love it when the PC screams for mercy.. it was a 17h render.. the render for Wednessday.. currently running is already past that.. at 18 hours and half way.. Me.. jumping into bed now.. 7.05 in the morning. Time to get some sleep ..

A wonderfully created scene with such a lot to see. I hope this isn't how we all end up on earth. A great perspective in this one too and I look forward to seeing the next render too.

Wonderful POV and image of a desolate village. Like the two giant guardians at the gate and the solo soldier on the wall. Dana

The remnants of a once proud and busy city .. a once fabulous harbor .. gone. Like all things man has built, it slowly disintegrates, as Mother Earth does her work and reclaims her land. What a fabulous POV! You climbed high into the crumbling towers with your trusty camera (grins), risking life and limb to get this image for us! And no one even saw you, everyone is so focused on Goliath's expulsion from all he knows, his walk into exile. We appreciate it though, (:
