Description

A kingdom, built into the canyon walls, gaurding the many bridges across the Rift. I wanted to create a city that is based around these massive bridges, make it fortified but keep it "majestic" looking. I spent most of Tuesday making the buildings in Wings, yesterday I set up the scene and today It finished rendering and I spent a couple of hours in Postwork. I made use of Photoshops blending tools to add the rocks around the base of the main bridge and to the right, and the clouds are from Zhann's "dramatic skies" pack. Thanks for looking, thoughts and comments are very welcome!

The texturing is what stands out the most for me. So many bridges gives it an air of irreality that goes well with the architecture that also seem to hit towards both the past and futur. Nice fine edge between realism and fantastic art. I'm a bit distracted by the blurring at the bottom. Lovely work.
