Description This is an alternate take on an earlier painting - "Night City".

I started with some of the same elements, but went for a more atmospheric daylight feeling.

I may revisit this and add some additional elements to convey the feeling of activity - but for the moment I'm walking away from this one - whether finished or not !

Am I the only one who is reminded of the Forerunner architectural style here? (HALO series)

Thanks! For now it's an abandoned city !

I looked at this painting - at 1:00 AM or so - and thought "I need to put in flying craft, a walkway, foreground figures, some mist, and who knows what else?" But I had to sleep too!

And so you see it - abandoned. I might go back in and add those elements; if that happens, I will definitely post the revised version

Thanks! It's the alternate to the Night City painting. It's kind of interesting to try a similar scene with radically different lighting

Captures the feel of a large city very well. More fine work.
