Description
This was made for CGSociety's "Strange Behaviour" Challenge. The story goes: In vertical oriental cities, gas-filled floating fish are commonly used for cargo transport. Being very docile creatures, they normally create no fuss. They glide slowly though the crowded markets, letting themselves be steered by their drivers to their docking stations deep within the city. But then once in a while a fish panics in the narrow passages and tries to get away, shaking off the little people climbing all over it and tearing down wooden bridges and market stands. Such behaviour is considered unacceptable and most strange. This painting depicts one such event.Related content

This scene is amazing... one of the most striking paintings I've seen here. The expression of the floating fish, the larger-than-life size of it, everything conveys a real dreamlike atmosphere... it's hard to describe, I love it.
Miyazaki should take inspiration from you!
