Photoshop 1 week on and off.
This is for a currently unamed project in which Im developing myself so far, to work up a better portfolio.
I have been working to unify the styles of the environments and characters under this project. Im still in the experimental stage, which is why this took longer than I wanted.
influences: Hayao Miyazaki, FF12, Chrono cross

This is a conceptual illustration of my city Escadia. It is located at the end of the Aven peninsula. It is the focal point of commerce. Having been built and rebuilt over the centuries the city's foundation hold many secrets, labyrinths, and stories. Located in the lower districts are the markets and merchant waterways. Moving up to residential areas and even higher is business sectors and high rise plazas, followed by vistas right on the outskirts at the shore.

Coming Soon: Process tutorial and my thoughts on color regarding this. And hopefully a wide establishing shot concept of the whole city.

it would probably take a half hr to an hr. Day to night is way faster than the other way around.

I can really see the miyazaki influence shining through here. This one picture tells you alot about the girl and her friend in the sky, makes you want to learn more. Also love the detail in the city here, and the layout you've set up with the other works showing off the city. Great job on all fronts.
