Unique idea and very nice construction, but the sharpness of the objects are not uniform, which can be clearly seen in the Hi-Res. Maybe the main problem is the source of the mountain, the resolution is quite low. Also, since the bridge was place on the dark background (the mountain), the white strokes are still visible, makes the bridge looks cut and paste. One more thing is the white ship looks too bright (the cloud density around it is too high, so this region should be darker). Just my feeling, this looks like a cloud factory, not really a city (or maybe you just show a part of the city ). All in all, in this resolution, your image is almost perfect and still gets high mark from me Reply »

Langstrum, you have a good eye. I worked on that area of the bridge, and I think it's better. I disagree about the zeppelin, though. It's in an open area that's quite well lit, and any dense clouds are behind it. As for resolution, well, you take what you can get. The sky image itself is the lowest resolution of all. I used the highest res they offered for the landscape. Thank you for taking the time to make an intelligent comment, and for your compliment. Reply »

i agree, it dont seem to be a cloud city, and the lighting is bad,
i would suggest the use of cloud brushes also because this looks like smoke Reply »

Great imagination you've created a very believable scene... Excellent blend of different sources, too. Good luck Reply »

Perhaps just a couple of portholes, and a bit larger would have more impact because they're cool. Love what you did with the other old images, good finds. The one thing that doesn't work for me is that biplane - imho, but the zeppelin totally works! And even tho it doesn't exactly look like a 'cloud city', overall I like this image.

Love the rectangular window in the rock. Nice touch! It's not a big deal, but it almost looks like you could darken the top of the zeppelin a tad...to keep it from being too bright. It's hard to say whether it would be that bright. The plane looks perfect with its lighting...but it almost seems that the blimp is farther away from the nice light. Just a thought...great image, author! Reply »

Nice image, probably not really a city IN the clouds but more like SURROUNDED by clouds but the surrealistic quality is nice. GL! Reply »
