Hey its finished! awsomeness. my sole critque: the grass, while still looking wonderful, seems far to healthy to be alive in such a caustic environment. Its really neat how the random-esque and jumbled building represent the clutter humanity is, and of course the smog and advertisement ius priceless

Thank you, and yeah, my art teacher said the same thing about the grass... but i still haven't really made up my mind about that... i almost like it being way too healthy, but i'm not sure....

Yay you finished! it looks great!!
i like how the city is bright. To me, it looks like a city.. and well, cities are bright.(circular reasoning, gotta love it)
I like the smoke. It threw me off when i first saw it because i thought, hey he's going to do lil puffy things, but nooOOoo. Anywho, i like that the smoke is dark. it frames in the giant and the truck. Plus because its so dark, it contrasts the lightness of the city and leads you up to see the giant
bravo

oh untill i read justin's thing i didnt realize there was smoke, then i looked again and realized how pitiful it was... as are the smokestacks...
i love how the cliff looks like its moving, like in the first seen of the meaning of life, where the building is used as a pirate ship, but its a cliff... being used as Progress... oh thats deffinatly my favorite part
the smiley faces are el neat, itsl ike, equal amount of black emptyness in the smile as the eyes, uber powerfull

Been looking at this thing for the past 20 minutes trying to figure out how I feel about it. After careful consideration I have come to the conclusion of meh.
I dunno... I just dont like the city a whole lot. The coloring styles are inconsistant throughout and it just seems... blah. The coloring around the circle windows and the coloring ON the windows, sometimes it's very fluid and sometimes it's very rough. The buildings are the same way in their coloring. I'm also not at all impressed in how you did the smoke... The city's just too colorful and nothing really stands out in it because of it.
Everything besides that I do really like. The sky is very nice, the signs are very well done and convay a collective message, and the small touches on the city are indeed, a very nice touch (the power lines, the pipes, ect.). The figure is, as always, wonderfully done and contorted in beautifuly inhuman ways. Though I dunno if it was OC or not but on his outlines it looks like there are spots of white that kinda makes him look like he's still on a different layer.
I have spoken! I apologise in advance, I think I may be in a bad mood and overly critical.

Statement 1: Sorry to hear that you dont like to city... that may well just be too bad
Question 1: how would you suggest fixing it?
Statement 2: agreed about the smoke
Question 2: did i fix it? i changed it... I think it looks better, but eh... if i didnt, once more, suggestions?
Statement 3: i'm not sure about *nothing* standing out, but i'm fully aware that Namenlos really just doesnt pop here...
Question 3: So how do i fix it eh? I've been fumbling with the idea and i cant quite find anything that really fixes it for me...

Request: look again when you're not feeling like shit. Just to see if your opinion is at all altered.
thank you

Answer 1: If you like it, then leave it! Your work man, I'm just the minority of masses. And really, if I look at it in preview mode the city looks fine. Just when I look close at it... I dunno, maybe I'm a damn weirdo.
Answer 2: The smoke is not fixed! Smoke does not bend to get out of people's way in the instance of the smoke moving so as to not obscure Namenlos. And remember, smoke dosnt ooze upward, it plumes and billows in great masses of itself, it dosnt go up in a fine stream (unless the factories run on candles).
Answer the third: Make the sky darker, make his shirt brighter. Maybe go back to the good old Namen' and make his skin blue! And in stead of trying to mesh the colors with a wide brush, use extreem contrast as though he were made of CHROME!
Comment the Quadracential: I love it in preview mode. I only like it when I look at it fully.
YOU ARE WELCOME TO THE FULL EXTENT OF WELCOMETUDE
