Description Do you remember me? I finally changed my username. Hint: I used to have a 1987

Everyone who played the latest Mass Effect game will obviously see the inspiration here. I don't want to start just another debate about the game, I do think it was pretty epic despite the slightly disappointing ending.

This image is part of Slashthree's rolling exhibition "World Exhibition III". A new concept with biweekly installments. The first installment has only six pieces, but they're all pretty amazing I think. O.O Check it out here: [link]

The scene is based on a photo I took in New York. It's the view from the Empire State Building at Downtown Manhattan. Most ofthe other elements are painted with the exception of the huge harvesters in the distance, which are modified models from ~dmaland .

Thanks for using my models - you created a really killer picture, and my "stock" elements were utilized in a way that maximized their strengths and minimized their weaknesses. Very nice!
