Thread: February 2020 Challenge: Sky Town

    Default February 2020 Challenge: Sky Town

    Yay, I finally managed to catch a CG contest at the start of the month rather than the end!

    Hardly an original concept but I love the idea of floating settlements, so this is my take on a small town clinging to a huge rock hanging in mid-air (at least in scruffy sketch and the beginnings of linework stage)

    Neato! It reminds me a little bit of the city in Disenchanted with the cliff overhang. Are you planning to put a compass in that corner insert?

    Thanks Tiana. Yes I was originally thinking of putting the compass rose in the corner, but the surround and general layout aren't finalised yet as I suspect the actual shape of the map will change as I work on it.

    Trying to make the most of a quiet weekend and managed to do a little more work on this.

    Thanks Beee

    Not sure if I'm happy with the compass rose (or I suppose quarter rose?), but time is marching on (seriously, where did Feb go?), so I'll keep plodding along with this.

    Is it possible to change the name of an entry? Sky Town is a bit generic and I'd like to change it if possible (Cumulusville, or maybe Two Clouds?), but no biggie if not.

    Well I think this is just about done (at least until I spot a glaring error 3 hours before the deadline )

    I really really like this!! I think you've done a fantastic job. Everything, from the colours, the simplistic frame, the compass, the linework, and the concept.

    Well done!
