Title: City Beta Highway
Post by: Pyro MX on May 29, 2005, 10:58:03 am

I worked on this one for a couple of weeks! the original pic was by hand. I scanned it and modified the whole thing with my computer. It's City Beta, in a story I'm writing. The cars and motos are held on the highway via an electromagnetic barrier. If you look closely to the carrier in the background, you will see that it's similar to the Malus assault carrier in ORB. The pic is not very big, unfortunately. Oh well! Enjoy!

Too cluttered and bright. Add some detail and definition, there's too much bright light spaces.

Well I'm kinda surprised about that... I mean it's a highway during rush hour after all... why shouldn't it be cluttered? I still have the PSD to edit it so I can add details and reduce the sun's intensity.  Any suggestions for details to add? I'll do what I can.

Hmm... highway system is just a little more twisted and cluttered than the Indiana roadways, but only by a little bit. :lol:

I agree with everyone else.  A little bright; just dum it down a bit and add some darker colors and it'll look awesome :yes:

Woah, a very big improvement from your previous works. :)

Apart from the suggestions mentioned above, the only qualm I would have is the angles that you draw things in etc.

But nice stuff. :yes:
Keep it up. ;)

Much better :) But your perspective is still really wonky - make sure to work on that in future drawings like these :)

Well this sketch was actually old - I did I think in november 2004 I must check the date. I only decided to edit it a month ago lol (lazy)!

No 3rd dimension? OMG! We're screwed!
