Title: Les cités suspendues
Name: Laurent Mordin
Country: France
Software: Photoshop

This is my first post for the NVART challenge. . I wanted to create imaginary cities on a desert world where gets involved technology that represents enormous citieshung on on rocks and archaic world represented by the man and his horse.
The title means " suspended cities "

Amazing job! I looks like those illustrations on the covers of the 70's and 80's ci-fi books. I like very much the environment. Greetings!

Great work, indeed! It has a cool vitage atmosphere as well!
The only thing bothers me that it seems you used the same city-scape for both settlements. There are some minor differences between them, but those are how to say 'marginal'?... Maybe if you try'll to make different type of cities but you'd still use the same concept on them? For exapmle this very one here can be wicked if you'll just 'rotate' the rear city. But this is just my opinion... :D
Anyway, this is a very good piece! I like the concept and the idea to contrast the hi-tech and low-tech worlds. It's chill and classic, too. The colors and lightning also nice, as well as the atmospheric effect... 4* So, keep it up! :thumbsup:

Super concept :thumbsup:, but I agree with what Zocs mentioned. The cities seem almost identical with soom subtleties. The perspective seem off it seems to me, but maybe it is because of that road and the glazing of the rock is inconsistent with the city.

But what a concept, :scream: I think you are on to something, keep it you also.
Thanks for sharing.
