David Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 First full day free to myself for a while and Ive been using this style in a lot of client work over that last couple of years, so thought Id see what happens if I'm not watching the clock and pack it with shading and detail, really quite please with the outcome. I'm going to add some characters to this next week if I get another free day. avo, GerardoDal, Chris B and 9 others 12 Quote DART | Twitter | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staff Chris B Posted October 10, 2016 Staff Share Posted October 10, 2016 I really like this. I'm looking forward to seeing some characters added to it. Where does your inspiration come from? I can't seem to place it with anything I've seen before.

David Posted October 10, 2016 Author Share Posted October 10, 2016 Thanks I wanted to make something completely new, and to raise my game a little loads of amazing work being made in Affinity at the moment (plus I had get away from all copyrighted stuff). I've actually had this scene in my head a while, happy it came out 99% the same as I pictured. Also from the Facebook fan page, I got a suggestion for a train station (which is excellent and I m starting this afternoon), after I had an idea to do a space port to complete the set .Then will spend a day after working of some life forms.

CartoonMike Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Great illustration! The composition is perfect and the level of detail is just awesome without being overwhelming. And the color palette used adds perfectly to the feel of it.

paolo.limoncelli Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Lovely. Did you try using slight gaussian blur to mimic depth of field on different layers? Maybe could add some more depth...

Just saying... :) I might have a play at some options when I have all three done, Ive never actually taken this style so far before, I use it for more simple client infographics that need a quick turn around. But I have an open to mind suggestions, I'm actually really enjoying not battling with perspective. paolo.limoncelli and katkankan 2 Quote DART | Twitter | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
