Wow, this is beautiful. I love the colors of the sky contrasted with the darkness of the ground. I'm surprised that you used mypaint for this! It's a program that I hear a lot about but never seen anyone use. I gotta check it out not!

Thanks

I like to use MyPaint to paint foliage. It has some brushes I really like for leaves and grass.

Nice blend of old and new. I like to imagine you have to take the bridge out of town to get to this fishin' spot, leaving all that city stuff behind. Very serene.

Thanks The bridge goes all the way to the planet in the sky - although I think the buildings hide most of where you could see that. I think it would be hard to fish off of the bridge

The city is gorgeous back there! I really like the concept behind this one - constants over time and a certain serenity. Nice to have a future world where the environment still allows fishing too.

Thanks for the comment I like to think some old things will still be around. One thing I think sci-fi movies tend to get wrong is the assumption everything old will simply be replaced.

Maybe that's another reason that I never much cared for sci-fi. Nice to think that some essentials will always be around.
