Description Speed/matte painting, initially done for a school assignment, this became a personal work made just for fun.

The original plate is a pic of Paris I found on flickr. The weather and the women are just soo fine right now in Paris, such a funky inspiring city......

Your alien/futuristic cityscapes are really great.Β 

I've written several SFF novels, and I'm posting one for free on #wattpad . Would you mind if I use this painting as a header for chapter 1.10? Β my.w.tt/UiNb/SK47z2pXBx

Could I ask permission to use this as a background for a 3d render ? or would you be interested in selling these as premium content using DA for non-commercial use ? I make 3d renders as a hobby, just for fun.

Hi dude, amazing artwork I love it. However, I think you have mis-understood what mattepainting is... mattepainting is a finished photo realistic image. Your works (as amazing as they are) are more into the concept art and digital painting side. That is not necessarily bad but it gives you an idea what these are just in case you will apply for a job

Happy Painting!

yo!

Thanks alot for the nice comments and feedback!
And yeah, I know these aren't real matte paintings. Actually, in the description above its written "speed/matte", because I don't really know what to call them.
Anyways, thanks again and some of your works are just amaaaazing...... nice to have coments from talented guys!

Those buildings reminds me of Resistance (PS3). Not exactly the same buildings.. but it's just like a picture:

A city wiht the high buildings from the Chimera in it!



Awesome! Good job ^^,

Classieux.. !

Le seul problème, mineur tu m'diras, c'est que les nuages ne sont pas vraiment en accord avec la lumiere.. Justement, ils sont tous le contraire.. Les ombres sont inverser !

Mais bon moi j'dit, ca mΓ©rite quand mΓͺme un Fav !

What package did you use to create this kevin? Did you use a photograph as a base point or did you sketch the whole bad boy out from scratch?

TheUncannyKen In reply to Avonius [2008-09-08 14:22:37 +0000 UTC]

yeah I used a large panoramic photograph of Paris, i can send it to you if you want.

And btw, I know it might sound confusing but astrokevin is my weird deviant name, my real first name is Ken

This is incredible. The touches of blue really pop against the scene, and the overall sense of scale and expanse is quite remarkable.

lol, this was supposed to be a background for my 3d scene posted previously. We don't have a matte painting course (unfortunately)!!
Maybe a few american (california) schools proposes these kind of lessons..
