Good work, eyewoo. I especially like the building in detail3 that leads out to the landing pad.
Overall it seems a bit heavy with the yellow with nothing really balancing it out, but it is still a cool pic.
Did it take longer to setup than paint, or the other way around? Seems there would be a huge amount of perspective work involved at the start for something like this.

Definately a kick ass pic. But indeed it may be a bit heavy on the right with all the yellow, my eye tends to wander over there. But oh my... the detail shots are awsome
Good work.

Nice! I like this version better. The "wheat" colored vegetation works much better than the yellow that you used before.

This is wonderful...i Don't understand how you can think of so many details and still give the impression that all of the buildings werent created by one and the same architect. Something to put on your site that i would love would be a pannable higher resolution version
And many thanks for putting together the progressive steps into an animated gif. You're king!

yea... I think my monitor got out of line... When I saw it on another setup, I was pretty surprised... at any rate, I reworked a lot of the picture to downplay the yellow shift.

Gimbal... Check out the "Animated stages of development" link under the picture. I pretty much worked out the perspective as the picture developed, rather than prior to starting the painting...

very nice pic. I do agree that the pic does seem a little heavy on the right side.

My only other crits would be that the parking lot in the middle seems like a little mound or hill, I think its because of the way the parking spaces are angled. And on the left side that satelite dish is lost in the color fo the hill behind it.

still a great piece of work.. your larger scale works are definitely improving. Love to see this stuff.

That thing branching off of the building in the lower right of detail #1. Dunno what it is, but the windows' perspective and the top of that wall thing don't match.
