Before the Storm by TobiasRoetsch

This is an incredible piece with lush colors, brilliant textures, and beautiful technique. The stark light, shining from the distance sets off the entire scene perfectly, shining on all of the details that make the scene full and elaborate. The piece makes you wonder what the soldier looking out over the city is thinking; will it be a peaceful evening, or will danger strike? Is this a somber moment for him, or an exciting one? So many emotions can be evoked by this pictures. So much curiosity that can't be totally satisfied in the picture alone, you really want to delve into the city itself to see what's there. It's absolutely stunning! Great job.

i love the colors, a good blend and crisp, they the details really pop. the sunset is very lifelike, and i like the way you dont focus on the what im assuming is a dragon, its in the shot but not the main focal point is what i mean, there are lots of layers and little treasures in this piece. i really enjoy your work, this one is very eye catching and looks very nice as a background picture on large displays

the structures in this are very well placed, no clutter and gives a more realistic look of a very old city, good spacing. Your skyline is gorgeous, i enjoy all the colors and styles used in the clouds, they are very appealing to look at especially in the area where the sunset meets the sky, very good blending of textures.

over all my favorite part of this i'd have to say is the buildings with the mountain in the background, that area is just so well done i forget there is another half of beauty to this.
