Description this is one of the first pieces that comes closest to the inspired ideas I had when I decided to get into Electronic art, only i never got to making something like this in 3D.
so today i got a great idea and did a photo manip. I spent sooo much time tweaking this, I had to make sure the lighting on each element was at least near impeccable.

special thanks to:

This one's awesome, too.

It's not that grave still a great manipulation

this is fab man. You totally got the whole computer 3d look down... but it vexes the eye because you can tell it isnt... it's confronting to the viewer, trying to figure out if it's "bryce" art or photo art... really brilliant man. You pulled this off wonderfully... your attention to detail in the lighting department really payed off as well.

So many exotic and fascinating aspects to this piece! The water has an electricity to it that feels more calm than anything, with a beautiful outlay of rocks and water that perfectly compliment the sky.

The city itself isn't like anything I've yet seen anywhere. The symmetry and ocean blue reflectiveness (or paint job) makes it look peaceful..but then there's that huge device that breaks the whole thing up, yet keeps the flow.

Excellent work, superb.

I love this, it reminds me of a scene from the 'Do the evolution' pearl jam video created by Todd Mc Farlene. Except this is more vibrant and placid, however the contrast between nature and industry is making a huge overwhelming statement.

I love those vents, portraying how pollutive chemicals seap into rivers and streams, killing off the natural eco system by warming water temperatures raising the levels of carbon dioxide levels so algae and other watery plants thrive and suffocate anyother flora or fauna species, by blocking the sunlight.

The shore of the river bank is great, all I see are pebbles coated in something thick nasty slurry, and there's no fish!!

Okay, I'm gonna have to hate you. I wish I could paint something like this, but I never get the ideas. I know, it's a photomanip and that's a different league, but no way easier than painting. You're mastering it quite well dude.
Stay in touch. Incredible picture.

ahh, thanks Aap, glad ya like, yeah quite a bit different than painting, but i'm finding that it is quite similar to making 3D in the aspects of lighting, heh, sooo much fun, with results that are phenomenally quicker, i'm loving it!
