Description
An old robot wanders through the desert with only a ragged cloak to defend it's self from the heat and sand. Though the machine feels no pain, it knows it can perish in this wasteland, giving a feeling of mortality...As usual I just can't help myself and photoshoped up my sketch. It's just too much fun.
I classify it as digital art because of the photoshop'n. Not painted, just some color overlays and other quick tricks. Also used the hell outa that lens flare, yeah!
Here's the OG sketch: [link]

isn't this based off that one game? journey?
i immediately thought it was fanart, but your description leaves that in the air, so maybe not.
eerily similar though.

the game has the same lonely, melancholy air, desert landscape, and mysterious cloaked subject.
either way-- great piece!

I'm afraid I've never even heard of that game before. Kinda cool looking game though.
No, this is just a random idea I had while sketching one night.

This is beautiful--it's a machine, yet there's something melancholic about it--something deep and sad. And there's that amazing feeling of solitude that I get just from looking at this...just beautiful. Oh, and great use of color.
I love the robot's eyes.
