Description
Heya,I can finally post this one!
It's one of 4 paintings that I did for a client from the US. He is an actor named Matthew Ewald and has become a very close friend.
My work on this project began almost 2 years ago! Not many pieces were created during this time, but some of the most time-consuming ones I ever did! It's been sheer fun up to this day.
So far, it's a project in developement, a Sci-Fi/Horror saga called 'The Lost Landers' all written by Matthew.
This painting depicts a key confrontation scene in this tale.
It was meant to resemble New York, I checked some reference to get it all right. Everything except for the ship was painted in PS 7.
Inititally, the ship had a different design but was changed in the process for different reasons.
The new ship design, an alien tech-modified, highly-maneuverable Space Shuttle with the catchy name 'Astronautica' was modelled and rendered before I placed it into the scene.
Also, you should know that this painting is pretty old already. Any resemblance to Cloverfield is coincidental because that film wasn't even released by the time this was done!
So, I hope you enjoy!
Another painting will follow!

Wow,the buildings here all look like renderings from the newest computer games. Fantastic job; I can't imagine doing all that detail, so geometrically, too. *0*
What going on in the background (those blue rings)? The dragon's red lines are really cool too--you can't quite tell if it's mechanical or not.
Great job! and congrats on the DD.

Epic man!!! Love the attention to detail you've given. Especially the way you've used blurring and smoke/fog/cloud.
This is by far one of the best dragons I've ever seen. Great job!!!
