Description
Hi there!Yet another "against-the-light" matte painting.
I want to show off a post apocalyptic destroyed cityscape, maybe after a war.
It's done with Photoshop CS and After Effects.
I kept the buildings in several layers and added fog in between.
Finally I rendered a camera pullback in After Effects with a previous version of the matte.
Please use "save target as ...", since I haven't optimised the clips for streaming:
PC - WMV-File, WM Version 8 Codec (3.4 MB): [link]
MAC - Quicktime, Sorenson Codec (9.8 MB): [link]
For those who are interested in having a look at the initial sketch: [link]
Thanks hoon, for helping me out with the final color correction
Cheers, Daniel

Hi,
I used a section of this piece (which came up on google images) as a preview pic for my piece "the 8th Circle." I'm not positive how crediting happens on DA, so I put your name and link in the description giving you credit for the artwork. Please feel free to check it out and if you wish me to take it down for any reason please let me know and I will find a replacement piece.
Thanks!

unbelievably amazing. It's utterly fantastic. It's one of the greatest screenshots I've ever seen. Not only is it dark and haunting, it's infinitely beautiful and chilling in its own way.

Epic. It has a background feel to it, seems like a movie ending. Nice detail. I like how it isn't completely done in, like a fading effect, especially how you fade from the foreground to the background, and the addition of the fog is nice too. Personally, I could never spend this much effort or time on this, but it's something that I admire.

Always looking for great inspiration for story lines, and it's nice to find post-apocalyptic imagery that isn't "over the top". Great work.

Wasn't this on the cover of the "Wasteland" anthology of short stories?

Would you mind if I set this as my computer wallpaper? I'm writing a post-apocalyptic comic and it would serve as fantastic inspiration.

simply outstanding but hum... there are lights in the front buildings. were there some survivors?

I'm just looking at it, waiting for a zombie or something to start moving around down there... heh
If it did, I'd probably scream and go

Now this looks awesome! Great work done, I'll may use it for inspiration for a later PA project. Hope it's not a problem.
Keep up the great work.
