Description Painted in Photoshop

"My thanks to [link] for selecting this piece as a DD, and to all those who took the time to view, comment and favorite- your generosity has been overwhelming...

A few technical remarks... The original is 3600x2100px in dimension. It's an amalgam of material (buildings, ships, etc.) drawn from other pieces, hence the title "Ultracity". Although the bulk of my work here on DA is matte painting, which incorporates literal photographic elements and textures, this is "pure paint", augmented by those handy tools available to digital artists: filtration, distortion and cloning..."

Regards,

John

When I see this,
I think of Coruscant, Cloud City,
and... microphones?
Awesome pic.
