Description
Been wanting to do a drawing of Starswirl's place for a long time now, but I never had the skill for it to look as epic as I thought it should.While I still think the skill is debatable, I feel this is epic enough.
It's 1920x1080 if people want to use is as a desktop.

Go for it. If you can credit it to me, that would be nice.

This is really cool!
Any chance we can get this in 1920x1200 or 1680x1050 for the people on 16:10 monitors? It'd work great as a background, but I just can't think of a way to crop it without cutting something important out of the image.

Lazy fix

Sorry, I'm wanting to try out some other things with this newfound urge to make stuff.
Also, here's a little gif of a few of the stages I still had saved while making this painting:

Yeah, you're kind of right. I was trying to keep the values pretty even overall because the lights and darks are all over the place (composition fail), but it does look more vibrant and less dull.

Left Starswirl alone because he's a bit darker anyways.

I think it works, especially for the observatory!

The floating lights chained to the ground are a nice touch! Keep up the good work!
