Description
I'm very interest in tall buildings, strange looking architecture and other things like that, so I try to make whole picture series from that same theme. This digital painting is the first image, and it taked about 7 evenings of hard work and one sore wrist, when I get it finished.Related content

This is.. Very unique indeed. I don't know but there's just something about this that I really like. Hard to say... the straightness of most cities juxtaposed with the curves present in her perhaps? I'm not sure.

Very nice to hear it and thanks for adding this picture to your favourites.
I wish that i can continue this "strange cities" serie in some day. I have always a lot of weird architectural ideas, but not usually a lot of time for hobbies like digital art. (Most of my wacom-works are made in my school years, before this blacksmith/jewelry business & farm/forest keeping lifestyle etc.)

I like it, it's got kinda an M.C. Escher feel to it.

Thanks. I have always liked M.C. Eschers works, but Jacek Yerka is maybe a little bit bigger influence on just this scene.

Oh, I haven't heard of him.
To Google!

The "Strange cities" series is really cool. Some of the coolest cities I've seen.

Thanks. I have already many more ideas for that serie, but my life (and blacksmith business..) is so busy in nowadays, that i don't have never time to draw anything with my wacom tablet. :/
Maybe i try make more weird city pictures after next christmas, because that is the most quiet time in this kind of profession.. (Probably some steampunk themed stuff, like walking and flying fortresses or cities etc.)

Thanks. It was also a cover image in one finnish science fiction magazine called "Spin" in the 2006 summer.
