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

i think if one fish panicked it would send all the others that could see it into a panic.

Oooooooooh, they're so round and creepy. The best kind of fish. And the detail is gorgeous! I love the harnesses and cargo~
I also like the texture of the bricks on the right.
Such a thorough environment~
So much to look at~~
Delicious~~~~

Astounding. The creativity of the image alone already deserves a fave. But the detail of the environment, the large floating fish, the citizens and the large city that they dwell give off a very unique and surreal feeling to it. An excellent image overall.
