Description I made this one 2 or 3 years ago and I would change a couple of things if it were now but I still like it overall.
Made in Vue.

EDIT: wow, thanks a lot for the DD! My second one!

You are the illustrator I need for the cover of my novel that tells the story of a couple of elves. They live on Alfheim where the architecture is medieval but three rather futuristic buildings built by Balder, the god of beauty. The Royal Palace corresponds exactly to your buildings illustration "The Colony".
For the cover art, one must see in the foreground couple of young elves side by side, supported on smooth and marbled columns. Behind them, one must see in perspective a vast green landscape bordered by the sea and sky. The royal palace to appear in the distance near the sea.
If you are interested, give me your email address so that I send you examples of what must be included in the landscape.
Of course I compensate you for this work.

The sense of scale for that massive bridge-like structure is amazing in this picture. Β It's a combination of the large buildings in the foreground being dwarfed by the bridge, but also that the bridge is so far away it's faded by the atmosphere. Β And of course, all these blues, especially the sea, look gorgeous. Β Simply an astounding composition.

You certainly get those imaginations inhabitants of other dimensions and other planets with existing lives. I know you have a lot of talent in this kind of work, but if you believe in other people is certainly with the thoughts and ideas focused on this element type.

I've had some imaginations alike that when I woke up I did not want to return, are things that I do not know how to explain, but able to demonstrate in Art. But I do not have any tool to be able to express these views I have.

I really wanted to be able to draw so that neither you, Congratulations.

Well......I WOULD like to live there right now, if it didn't look so tropical. It hate the tropics. Other than that, it's an amazing city, and I'd love to at least visit.

No airbrush, no wacom. This was built as a 3D virtual world, where I can move a virtual camera and take virtual "photos" (which we call "renders", in this kind of software). It's similar to some techniques used in movies to fake environments.

Love this picture . I thought you'd like to know, I used it (as well as "Caves of Tau Ceti") as partial inspiration (with credit and a linkback) for my description of an alien resort planet in my Mass Effect-related fanfic, here: [link] .

A lot of different elements make this a rich illustration. There's a story here and the more you look at it, the more you get the feel for the story.
