The angle of the camera in this render is amazing. I love the detailed textures of the buildings and the fact that the side of the nearest building looks like a CPU underside. Love the bronze-y colour of the buildings and the amazing overall detail, including the motherboard look on the 'ground' of the artwork. This design is similar to a few games I've seen but nevertheless is a great piece of work, a great addition to my #WindowsMacToast group and in my opinion this is like something out of an Intel advert (good point). I think I'd have fun living here! Keep up the good work e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Big Grin)"/>

The first thing I said when I said this amazing work of art was... wow. I kept repeating that word for a couple of minutes because the attention to detail is fantastic, the method used was amazing, and the piece was all around absolutely mind blowing. The fact that this was done with fractals only makes it all the more impressive.

The use of perspective in this piece was also amazingly impressive, and the title definitely fits the overall composition of the piece. Vertigo is the first thing that hits the viewer and the foremost thing that stays on their minds after seeing it.

The way the 'buildings' were carved inwards also adds an amazing sense of depth to the picture. I did feel however that some elevator-like structures at the sides would help reinforce the notion of height in the picture, much like the way birds in photographs does the same.

The coloring feels somewhat drab as well, with an overused brown palette. Perhaps some stark red on white would help? It didn't affect the piece much at all, however.

Basically, the art here rocks, you rock, and it's all awesome.

Thank you very much for my first critique. I am quite overwhelmed!

I am so pleased that I was able to express and share my feelings.

As the fractal is "raw" I did not want to add to or manipulate it in any way to make it more realistic but I will definitely take on board your suggestion about the colour pallette!

I truly appreciate your thoughtful critique, thank you kindly!

Absolutely outstanding. This is one I wont show the wife or she will be falling over with her vertigo

This would be great printed large and layout on the floor so you could stand at its edge and look down

I hate doing it on another artist's work. But if YOU do and grand me permission, I can use it for a Blackbox theme with full credits to you and links to any page/site of your choice
