Title: Coral City
Name: Neil Blevins
Country: USA
Software: Photoshop

Last year I started this speed painting, but evolution took over and it ended up looking very different in the end. So this year I decided to revisit the original concept and see if I could get something closer to my original vision. The painting makes strong use of custom brushes for the mechanical stuff, and my usual gassy treatment.

Great stuff Neil! I couldn't actually work out what it was for a while there, but I love the concept!

As it was said the concept is pretty interesting and well made :)
Depth is unique and very good looking, I think that the three towers should be a bit blacker from the center to the exterior of themselves.

nicely done, the setting is quite beautiful and image simple yet strong.

Thanks everybody for your comments, glad you enjoyed the image.

You're right, I was going for a stronger sillouette look, but adding that would guve the towers more 3dness. Thanks for the suggestion.

Good suggestion, filed away for next time :)
