Photoshop and illustrator. Some of the elements used were handdrawn and traced in illustrator, other were photos I've taken myself or dug up from somewhere.

The motive is somewhat conceptual . All the noise, mess and lack of decent nature in the city makes people and animals go out in the nature. Hench the planes, zeppelins, birds leaving the city. The residents, however, get caught up in the loudness and ends up a couch potato. At least, that's the message here. :P

Be sure to view the full version for extra goodness. :)

UPDATE: 10/19/06 - I've created extra sizes for this Wallpaper due to popular demand - the new sizes are:

citylife_2048x1536.jpg (4:3)
citylife_1920x1200.jpg (widescreen)
citylife_1600x1200.jpg (4:3)
citylife_1400x1050.jpg (4:3)
citylife_1280x1024.jpg (5:4)
citylife_1024x768.jpg (4:3)


Since I can't figure out how to update this deviation with the new sizes, they are avaliable for download at my site at this following [link] :)

Usually pictures like this turn out being 'too busy', but I think this is just perfect. Great work!

While Wolverine's bones are laced with futuristic metal Adamantine, Vin Diesel's bones are laced with 80's pop star Adam Ant.
