I've been quite busy finishing up a publishing project, but I managed to find at least a little time to experiment with custom shapes some more.

This is a quick image, and experiment really (as opposed to a finished picture). But I haven't posted anything for a while so here it is, for better or worse!

Custom shapes are an incredible time saver. The shapes I used for this painting were created from other painting of mine, although just about any source will do.

Or is Steve-burg only a Alias ? And you are syd Mead ? Its maybe a good way from keeping away all those crazy Fans

Wow the objects are looking get along. Love it!

Wow! I like the abstract-ness of it. How did you get the textures on the building? layers w/ a low opacity? gives a neat effect

*steve-burg Feb 19, 2012 Professional Filmographer

The basic shapes start as flat areas of color, then additional layers at low opacity give the surfaces some variation. That's how the lighting falloff on the foreground tower was done, for example

~Regulus36 Feb 21, 2012 Professional General Artist

Thanks for the tip, when you lay out an area of color - is it like a filled shape or something? or some kind of abstract brush stroke maybe ... that might be interesting

~ViolaAtDeviant Feb 17, 2012

wow, very cool.
