Description

This piece was done as the cover for Rifts WorldBook 29: Madhaven published by Palladium Books. “Madhaven” is the name given to the haunted ruins of Manhattan.

The painting utilizes many of the techniques I learned from the Gnomon Workshop's DVD The Techniques of Christian Lorenz Scheurer Advanced Digital Painting in Adobe Photoshop® Volume # 2. The way Sheurer uses photographic textures in his workflow was really an eye-opener to me and I decided to try them out for this painting.

I based the concepts of some of the ships on mine dump trucks and agricultural machinery. I dunno it just seemed like it would help ground the concept in the real world.

C&C welcome.

yum, I like, the floating vehicle on left is a bit too boxy and seems to lack the technology to be able to float.

Very well done, it carries the eye throughout from the sky down to the street workers.

Incredibly atmospheric. Great job! Funny how you have used a big truck in a floating vehicle design. I admit, it doesn't seem to have the aerodynamics suitable for flight, but heck, who needs that? Nice post apocalyptic view.

Wonderful technique. Maybe I should purchase a copy of that dvd myself :)

Really awesome. Great depth, textures and details. Neat touch with the flare in the top right.

Excellent! The only thing that looks a bit odd is the stairs on the ship in the foreground - angle looks off. Other than that, this is a great piece (thumbup)
