I felt like this scene is about the steampunks airship wars.

I'm sorry if I'm too late to comment and give you my thoughts, author. When I'm looking to all the way down to the city, it's just a modern city. Steampunks should be on the city where the steams, steamclouds, pipes, post-apocalyptic scene, junkyards and all the old-style elements scattered around. I have one good resource for the scene; type 'machinarium' on any search engines. It will leads you to an animated webpage which tells the stories of tiny little robot with the environment of steampunks (junkyards).

Anyway, it's a great entry to come across. Steampunks entries (in my mind) will be crowded with people, costumes, bots, etc. But you MADE ANOTHER style, playing with scene and that's the way I like it.

Good luck, author. Cheers for the best!

Very retro like, author! I felt like it was from an old, vintage detective steam punks movie.

A little suggestion though it's already late I know, tried to add some noise whenever you hit an old-sepia like pictures. Its gonna 'hit' or has more impacts to your picture's atmosphere. Also a little vignette would do a better 'manipulation'. Playing a bit with white balance (adjustments layer: black & white and set to neutral density with a soft light blending mode) also gives you more 'vintage-like' final result.

Well, I'm sorry I've come late to this one! But nonetheless, I LOVE the way you put the golden mean here and the sepia tone. Good luck, author!

It's okay then, your version of clouds suit the drawing as well. If you can't draw clouds, I'll teach you how to paint it somehow, well first of all, I need to know; you're using any of graphic tablet? If yes, go to F5 (Brush settings), see the Shape Dynamics then turn ON the controls of angle jitter and roundness jitter each of them to Fade with default settings (25 and 50). You will have a randomize strokes. Play with Chalk (PS default brush) and any other non-rounded brushes. You'll learn something quite interesting there to make some clouds. Good luck, author!

It's better now, author. Well, could you add a little vignette to your picture as well to emphasize the whole image moods and atmosphere? Or my suggestion, maybe you should try some clouds. So the picture itself could tell more stories and has a greater feeling of flying into the sky. Anyway, it's just my opinions, hope it's not gonna ruin your mood. Happy drawing!

Be patient, author. Seems you've got a lot of hard times to finish before the deadline. Though it's an interesting concept~ LOVE the DoF and just a little nitpick, would been better if you add a little noise, since BPR or Sub Surface Scattering won't do any good to this one imho.

High votes and best of luck!

Love the vignette feeling. It's kinda gloomy but still I love the way you created this, especially the wings of butterflies. Looks holographic. Best wishes, author!

Author, I've been through the hard times lately. One of my family member has passed away days ago. I just back from the funeral-home. Yes it's quite beautiful I admit, but for me... Graveyard also brings a grief memories. But nevertheless, it's a great capture!

Nice, I thought it was a photo, author!

If you had time to do the post production, I suggest to put a depth of field to the chain. And also a little noise to the entire image, that's all my nitpick for your great entry! High vote and God Bless You!

Everything was fine, author. Except the texture on the wall, it's kinda unnatural IMHO, it stopped at the edge or something and repeated. Nevertheless it's a great image.

Well done, author. Feel much like the hell is running loose.

My suggestion; add a little extra cyan or bluish highlights to the edges of head or robe (whichever you want right or left) to emphasize the moods and color balance for the hellrunner. Since you had a little blue color to your image. It's just my suggestion though, maybe you're a bit tired to paint it again. Lol.

Nice execution to the source image though!
