The lightning is beautiful and the colors are choosen very well.

the only concern might be that the image is a bit to rough at close-by view.

Hi!
great lighting...
I like this mix of speed touch and impression of details, without really details!
You thought the light in terms of surfaces, and it's really good
Hope you'll understand me.
bye

great atmosphere and style.

Though i'm somehow missing a little contrast in the colors.
Also the wall of the building in the right hand front seems to be the only one with a little bit of texture and therefore feels a bit out of place.

Great picture anyway

Amazing piece buddy! Interesting style of painting. Over all I like the lighting and ambience you´ve created, it seems like I´m inside it...this kept me looking it for loooong minutes, observing each detail and the way the light bounces on the whole scene. Is so drammatic.
Congratulations
Best

u have a great ability to portray mood and atmosphere in so few colours and brush strokes..

although i know this is a lot of hard work, your fluid and textured style is a pleasure !!

congrats please post more

Thanks very much for the comments and feedback. This was a pretty quick sketch, just trying to get a certain feel for lighting - daytime, but spooky. Here are a few other sketches done about the same time, exploring the same "world."

This is awesome, I love it.

Word of advice though: Remake it in a MASSIVE form so I can make it my background.

I love how you said that those were quick sketches. They are just beautiful concepts, and have a very uniqe style. I wish I could sketch quick like that. You also project such a story in your final piece. Very nice!

Love it. The first thought that popped into my head was Rogue Trooper for some reason, so you were already onto a winner with me. :thumbsup:

I also think blue would've have worked almost as well for this pic.
Word of advice though: Remake it in a MASSIVE form so I can make it my background.

Hi guys

Thanks very very much for all the comments and feedback. Sorry I have not been replying - been pretty busy lately with side work in addition to regular work, hehe. I appreciate it though.

foam crab, it's either an umbrella or a huge pencil, I forget which.

Raznai - I have not read Prey, but I think I will pick it up. I looked into it at amazon after seeing your comment, and it does look interesting. Thanks for the tip...

Also for those people who asked, here is a high res version - its 1920x1080. Glad you like it!
