Title: Spectacular - The Journey
Name: Michael See Zheng Xun
Country: Malaysia
Software: Photoshop
hie people~here's the final image i've made for the spectacular challenge,thanks to all my friends and the participants in the cgcommunity who'v helped me out.greatly appreciated:)
the story:
Mother Earth was a beautiful place where living being thrived,but that was another page of history since it was depleted of natural resourse and the ability to provide for the living.Where when it almost come to a breaking point that Earth cannot sustain life,humans however have but limited choice ,one of the more sensible choice,to leave Earth and to fine a new habitable planet to live in.However,the space technology was rush and wasnt perfected.Human colonies on these ''habitable'' planets looked far from being a civilised nation.though they were living quite well,they were working hard to make their new planet more Earth-like,much like what we remembered it so long ago.Though Earth has been a 'dead' planet to them,people pay homage to her by offereing the lantern of light and hope to her,as if they are moaning for their broken haven

i think you altered your style compared to your previous pieces and honestly i like this one better. your strokes are smaller and more detailed - i think. i like the lightning on this one as well. keep it up.
hope to see more of these stuff in the future. keep in touch. cheers man.

Very nice.
Only problem I see with this one is that it's too narror to be a background. :sad:
Other than that, it's practically perfect. :bowdown:

really really happy for you man.
CGTALK is really your life. I still remember that company time when you were so disappointed about that cgtalk incident. I had never seen you that sad. And I knew for someone so devoted like you, one day they will learn to appreciate..
Of course your picture is nice, and you know it too. =) And for me its even nicer, because I know how heavy your schedule is, and also in the office they dont allow you to use usb ports, so you must be doing it after work. So, that makes it even more fantastic man.
Really happy =D congrats

Very nice story and image. I like how you have captured the emotion in the piece, through the darkness in colours in the streets and the how you have the laterns lit as the only hope and light they have in their lives.
Also love the build up of the dabbed rough texture and dark hues you have in the sky, it really shows the destruction that had occurred previously.
Great work.
