Description
After I was done with this one.. I realised that I liked the wip version (the first image) more than the finished one (the bottom picture).. Too late. The file's overwritten. Bleh.. I'm not sure if we're gonna be friends, I gotta lose the tendency to over-do things first.I think I would be happy with it if I added all the architecture details to the upper one. Minus the colors and all the glows, blings n shit from the bottom image.. Double bleh.
Well, next time should be better.

I'll be another vote for the first image. Black/green is just so evocative and dystopic. The second image does have beautiful detailing though.

One looks like a reflection of a post-industrial city that can(or will be)seen all around us...both have that edgy-not-quite-maintained look one sees today.No matter if it's Asia,Africa,The Euros or the "New World".
Just a few thoughts.

P.S. how's the small one doing?
Getting more like Daddy?

I think there's an option in most art programs that lets you make the picture monochrome... not as in black and white, but black and any other colour you want. You could use it on the second picture to make it green again....

I like the wip more than the end result. Layers girl, LAYERS D: Then you don't have to worry about the earlier stage get "ruined" *layer geek* . But I think they look good. I would deffinetly love to see such a landscape/background in a scifi movie keep up the good work

Dude, I've got all the layers.. The thing is that I'm too lazy and I've got too many cause I don't really care when I do stuff for myself and my file's are a real mess
That's different at work, keeping everything grouped, with different colours.. Scares even me
But yeah, hopefully with the next one I just won't overdo it..
Than you so much :*
I'm really glad u like it.

I think the top one looks eerie, which I like. I do like all the wires in the bottom one.

Hmmmp. I like them both. I guess I'm actually more fond of the top one --I only miss the girl and the blimp and the cables found in the bottom one. I think if you added those elements to the top one it would get even more interesting than it already is. Really nice work, both.

I like the bottom one a lot. They're both wonderful and they both have a completely different feel.

I can see what you mean with the two pictures, but I really like the end result too. I think that they both individually portray different aspects of the city, and I think that's cool. I love the WIP because of the eerie green, but subtle light. It reminds me of maybe really early in the morning after bars have closed etc. And the bottom picture reminds me of the booming cities, and when everything is open. They are both very pretty, and I really like the girl in the second version, it adds so much intrigue as to why she might be there. I also love the almost abstract buildings in the first one.
Lovely work.

beautiful landscapes, Karin! :3 im intrigued with the shiny spheres, are they something like energy containers?
Good work with both versions! the first one seems to be more dreamy and warm, while the second one is more oppresive and cold :3 two interesting interpretations!

I agree with you, I like the top one better. Couldn't you fix it by adjusting color levels / hue in Photoshop?

Not really, tried it.. Really. Cause I was so pissed off and disappointed, believe me.
But the next one will (hopefully) be better

Bottom image ftw. Top is drab. Lacks punch whereas the bottom image has contrasting colours that makes things pop more. If you'd have shown me just the top image I'd have shrugged at it and continued on my merry little way.
The only thing I'd say about the bottom is to shift that airship left some. The way it lines up with the figure is awkward.

I honestly like both images equally, thous the spear/light pillar thing in the second image is a bit bright and overdone. Nevertheless, they are both beautiful pieces.

I don't know, I think they're both quite excellent, just in different ways. Maybe they are like.. different times of day/night of the same city.

I love your dark cyberpunk-esque art! The style is so moody and you have an amazing imagination. One of the most interesting artists on dA.

I also like the first one more, but you did a good job on both of them. I like the way you colored and detailed them.

Thank you
I hate doing backgrounds and land/city scapes.. I dunno.. I guess I'm all about character design. But there comes a time when you gotta try something else for a change I guess and I'm really hoping it will also bring something into my character drawings.
Thank you for the kind words. I only hope next ones will be better
