Description
Enjoy the phenomenal view over Coreign with its fantastic sunset and starry sky.As promised, here's the 'classic' late day/evening shot of the wondefull city Coreign. Somewhat futuristic with gigantic population but with a lot of vegetation and natural wonders on the other side, mankind has found a good balance with mother nature. A little different, not the stereotypical high technology view in the future where you can see nothing besides glass, metal and other manmade structures as long as the eye reaches.

Amazingly gorgeous!! How do you do that?! Wowzers! The colors are so beautiful and they represent a truly alien world. The shapes and designs all fit within Star Wars and yet are truly unique to it. Delicious.

Im going to try to program a little app that will take the orriginal pic and place it on your desktop, and as the day passes by, it will slowly fade into this evening version of it. Its that good.

jaw-dropping. actually reminded my of something from the game homeworld at first. mostly due to the fact that the large skyscraper buildings looked like the motherships from the game...
GJ!

hey man..now before you take this offensively, like most deviants would..cough cough =alexiuss or whatever his name is..im going to be blunt with you.
A lot of your works are starting to look the same. But before you flip on me, because I see you reply only to the negative comments...take this into mind, I'm not saying youre a bad artist..at all.
Youre pics usually have the same angels, same set up, and same buildings..and I think you could really differ from this and improve your original skill. If anything, make your pictures better with time and practice.
I also feel like a lot of artist never take this into mind, because theyre so used to what the community likes and not what they like..hence...anime and as I menitoned above, =alexiuss ..because he thought I was such an ignorant fool for saying that all of his cliche "pedestrian view, look up at the buildings, crumpling away into a twirly sky, with white dots everywhere" style was always different..when it isnt.
Hopefully you wont, and you'll take this advice coming from someone who's seen others work crumble because they cant break into new styles. I think you could.
Just my two cents, hopefully you wont think im "bashing you", because that would be ridiculous.

Heya,
thank you for the constructive comment, i greatly appreciate that! Of course i don't take that offensively - that would just be stupid.
Good point about what the 'community' likes... this is definately not thereason, but it's an influence for sure. I guess you can't really compare what the 'community' likes with what AD's would like to see. I don't want to talk down, but most of the stuff that is 'popular' and on the frontpage here is the same all over and over - anime, 'cute' things and the typical dark Photomanip etc... but that's a different point.
Thank you for opening my eyes a little more and pointing me into the right direction, it's great that people like you help new/young artists with such constructive input.
Sorry if my english isn't very good, it's an honor that you took the time

=] im glad you didn't take it the wrong way, like I said most artist would and would just insult me as if I draw stick figures and crap all day haha. And dont worry about engish bro, it's fine. Yeah I just wouldn't want to see great skill, limited to the same thing. I used to be like that, stubborn about my art and not wanting to "move forward", but I did and I was glad I did also. It really is endless when it comes to style and art, you can do whatever your put your mind/skills to. And I think you have great potetional, you already have the fans, all they can do is support you ill keep my eye on you and watch, good luck man

Fantastic wallpaper. I'm honestly speechless. This goes straight to my favourites
Would it be possible for a widescreen wallpaper version (16:10) of this? I would SOO love that

The contrast is rocksome! I rarely use other people's wallpapers, but I may actually use this one. It's sweet, to say the least. I saw it and thought Star Wars. And, lo and behold! It was, in a sense! Love it.
