Good afternoon everyone. Below I have attached my initial concept and my first WIP. Please tell me what you think. I apologize for posting in the wrong area before, this in my first challenge I’ve entered. Thank you so much. This is so exciting.

Hi Beth, be careful when matching the perspective of the plate, it’s quite a tricky perspective to pull off, but once you have created a perspective grid, it can make aligning any elements you add much easier.

I created a tutorial on the method I use to set one up here: http://forums.cgsociety.org/showthread.php?f=196&t=1278054

Good Evening Everyone. The following is my completed entry for the Age of Destruction Challenge. I hope you all like it. I know the submission guideline stated the final image be at a 2048x853 pixel resolution, which is what I did, but I could not figure out how to make the file small enough to allow it to attach. (Any tips on how to get it to compress to a small enough file are very welcome and appreciated). So I also posted it at full resolution on my CG Society projects. You can find it at the following link:

I had so much fun participating in this challenge, and it was such an honor getting to work with so many talented artists. Thank you so much. Please tell me what you think.
