Wow, you are talented man. It's a good thing your learning 3dmax because that way you can make forground buildings and implement them into your paintings .

This almost feels like a triptych, and less a single image. Of course we all have our own way of working, but if it were me, Id vary the size of the shapes a little more and put something in the forground.

westcoaster [2007-06-15 06:50:42 +0000 UTC]

Very cool. I like the dull, bronze-ish colour on of the buildings and sky... somehow it matches well with the rawness of the buildings. The lights provide some good highlights, although I can't help but feeling that they're missing in a few places where they could be used...

David-Holland In reply to westcoaster [2007-06-15 12:09:31 +0000 UTC]

Thanks yeah the lights look a little patchy in places, i should have really paid more attention to them.

wi-flip-ff In reply to David-Holland [2007-06-15 06:12:26 +0000 UTC]

of course, the atmosphere is better there, there's too much detail on focus in the right side, the sky is better at the left and the buildings in the back make a feeling of depth which is preferable for environmental designs

Chromattix [2007-06-14 06:28:49 +0000 UTC]

The colour problem is propbably the screen. Laptops have those screens that change colour depending on the angle it is looked at but when the same picture is on an older model screen The colours become saturated and darker. I get this a lot aswell.

Although the buildings are superb. I just wish I could paint stuctures like that. But the jet trails look a bit off. Hot glowing material is always lighter than its surroundings but some jets are darker. than the sky. That could be easily solved by setting the brush mode to either colour dodge or linear dodge. It gives a cool glowing effect.

David-Holland In reply to Chromattix [2007-06-14 20:18:26 +0000 UTC]

Yeah i should have paid more attention to the trails or maybe i should have just made them white. Thanks

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Chromattix In reply to David-Holland [2007-06-16 11:14:20 +0000 UTC]

No problem... If You ever decide to fix these, You wont even need to erase the original trails. Just choose a colour ( even if it's white ) that matches the trail colour , change the brush settings to linear dodge and go over it...It would probably take 10 minutes but can have some cool effects. I remeber the first time I used this setting, I never looked back.

And of course, the overall picture looks really good.
