Reviews for "Orange City Matte"
Sweet, I think this is pretty awesome.
I think MOSFET is somewhat harsh in his oh so very detailed critique.
Though which structures, especially of this magnitude, you would want a feeling of solidity which I don't think is achieved with freely drawn lines. I noticed it right away that the buildings didn't seem so stable as they weren't drawn straight edged, but then I realised, who cares right? This isn't mean to be a blueprint right?
It's an artistic piece and I think you should always look for the creativity and idea found within a piece, rather than nit pick on details that aren't necessarily so important. If indeed there is any to be found, which in this I feel there is.
Like sure, it's a drawing of buildings and perhaps they're not structually sound but hey, I think you're trying to depict an epic landscape with a seemingly futuristic appeal, rather than detail a sound construction.
I feel you depict said epic landscape quite well and I really enjoyed this piece. The orange mist, to me, seemed more like pollution than clean air. It made me feel that this city is somewhat invovled in heavy industries with mass factories and what not.

Reminds me of City 17 from Half-Life 2! Amazing...
This is a great piece of artwork. I like your style of drawing and the dramatic lighting really blend together with the CGI looking environment. I also love the high-tech architecture buildings especially the twin towers, it resembles the real life 'Petronas Twin Tower' in Malaysia . Though the designs are completely different and I also love the mysterious ephemeral smoke near one of the building which makes the city looked like it was out of this world which reinforce the sense of curiosity amongst the viewer.
You really done a good job and im looking forward to see more of your work.
how long did this take? A year?
Nice work.
