This is not really precise.. i will add a starfog in the bagground and the city it self will be changed and more detailed. This just showes the basic idear of how this alien race uses the vulkanic gas, and steam from the ocean to lift their city..

Their planet was flooted by the same metior that they now depent on for survievel.

The idea behind your concept is right on with the subject, but I think the elements of your comp. could be a bit more "alien". For example, the gas-thingy looks too much like water, the green thingy in top of the city (?) looks too much like a tree. Little details like that could make your scene much more believable as an alien location. Also, a curious observer would like to be closer to the mainland so he can appreciate the details of the unknown, there just isn't too much fun in a huge mass of gas, is there?
Just some of my thoughts... hope it helps.

Ooops :blush: I re-read the xplanation and I guess the blue thing IS water... sorry. Anyway, water is a basically earthly element, so you might want to consider changing it to something more bizarre. Like energy goo, plasma, or some other exotic element.

Thnx for the reply. I'll try to make a more spesific sketch to night. I am gonna keep the water.. because i dont think life really can ecxist without it.

This will proberly be the liftsystem (just more detailed) that will make the city hower above the lava. About the plasma.. thats a good idea. If i remeber corectly plasma is when gas gets really hot. So instead of lava it could be plasma.. I think i have toy with that idear :wip:
