Description

Hi there! Yet another scenery painting. It shows a rather unusual place for a city. Starting from an initial sketch: LINK I finally painted a vast amount of details. arrgh ... Parts of the city, a few rocks, trees and ice surfaces are photomanipulated textures. Some tech specs: - 4700 x 2000 px width and height. - 836 MB painting data. - My right wrist nearly fell off while painting the details. - Adobe Photoshop and Painter 8 via Wacom Intuos2 (as usual ) After spending 50 hours (spread over several days) I consider this painting as finished. Critiques and comments are very welcome. Hope you like it! Daniel

Absolutely superb. One of the things that I am most impressed by when it comes to art is detail. This shows exceptional attention to detail. I hope to see more of your work in the future!

IMO your initial sketch is mystical and this is lost in the finished image. And I miss the mountains on the right side... But nevertheless your "final" picture is a fantastic piece.

I think it works very well--you have included some "hero" buildings to pull the eye around, and while you added a ton of detail you didn't get bogged down with it. Excellent!
