Some humour in this remarkable piece together with a great big threat. Perspective is perfect.

What kinds of photos were used for this? I am enamored by this art. I assume you used a tablet. Could you please give me an insider's look into how you made this? I understand if you cannot.

Vablo In reply to GreyPWalker [2013-11-02 12:57:53 +0000 UTC]

Some mountain and rock photos, industrial stuff, random bits from here and there. The idea is to get some texture out there fast, and then paint over it whatever you want to have in the picture. So a good understanding of values and basics is still required, photos are just another tool for me, and that's how I want to keep it. I don't know how much you know about digital working, so it's kinda difficult to now from what point to explain. And yes, I use a tablet.

I have some timelapse videos in Youtube if you want to check them out, you might find them interesting -> www.youtube.com/user/Vablo/vid…

Is this Skyrim inspired?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Vablo In reply to RockLou [2013-10-31 17:30:38 +0000 UTC]

Inspired by everything combined, wouldn't say Skyrim as one of the things that comes first to mind Dishonored, Star Wars, Fallout and Akira are probably much closer.

RockLou In reply to Vablo [2013-10-31 19:35:16 +0000 UTC]

How is this inspired by Akira?


This is totally Skyrim to me. Down to the outfit, but the city reminds me of Solitude. If you've ever played Skyrim...

Vablo In reply to RockLou [2013-11-01 03:22:41 +0000 UTC]

Because of the hovering vehicle man!
It's much more developed than Skyrim, in the sense there is some much more advanced technology like for example electricity in the image, with the lights, cords and the vehicle. Oh yes I've played Skyrim, it's a good game and might be inspired by that too, not intentionally though.

Mountains and cities, I've been crazy for that shit for quite a long time from books and movies, and when seeing Markarth and Solitude for the first time.... That was awesome.

RockLou In reply to Vablo [2013-11-05 22:19:43 +0000 UTC]

oh yeah you're right it's more technologically advanced. It's actually cooler than Skyrim. I'm totally using this as my wallpaper, its the right size and everything.


First time seeing Markarth... oh man was it cool!
