Description
I've been doing a lot of work recently that I can't show (which is always a downer) and a lot of other work cramming to finish off a major project which is eating in to my art time!This is a concept image illustrating an area with such enormous vegetation that you can actually walk under the roots of larger trees. I always loved the look of "A Bugs life" when they turned mere blades of grass into glowing cathedral-like ceilings and the like; I've just made the foliage larger rather than the characters smaller.

I'm taken aback at the overwhelming majesty of this setting. The style in which this has been painted is a nice break from the uber-detail of your previosu pieces, which is by no means a bad thing, but the simpler effect does, I feel, lend a lot to the atmosphere more than your grander cityscapes.
as usual, it seems.

Arrgh. You've got two of those now. x.x I mean, the same file, twice. Erryes, you probably noticed it yourself. : P
The picture itself of course looks wonderful.
I really like the water and the little bridge thing. ^^

I would ask you how, but then again I have a fear of getting laughed at. So instead I'll just sit here in silence while I stare at that for a few hours.
