Description This is my Hayao Miyazaki inspired painting for Cghub's "Homage to Hayao Miyazaki challenge" we had 3 movies to paint from Spirited away, Howls Moving Castle and Princess Mononoke.

About my painting:
The city that is riding on the back of the air fish is actually a 6 legged chameleon city which Crawls off once the Air fish approaches skylands.
The city changes its appearance to match the different skyland environments, for example the buildings change color and composition.
The chameleon city can eat buildings whole and pop them up on his back. That's how it grows.

But don't let the chameleon city be caught by the gunfish!
The gunfish are air pirates flashing bright red and green banners, they loot the chameleon City if they can catch it in route between skylands.

I love Miyazaki's work... everything is possible.

There are some other really good entries you can see them

Just awesome.

If something is Awesome, that means it has some awe. Thus if you follow the logic, something that is FULL of awe would be better, having more "awe," and would be called Awful.

This is so beautiful, I can really see the Miyazaki inspiration through and through. Absolutely stunning work, I would've thought it a geniune Miyazaki just looking at it. Very well done.
