Rising from the depths of the sea is a city built on the back of a giant turtle.
Random idea, thought it was cool. You may or may not agree.

City itself isn't that great, but I had lots of fun with it overall. Been awhile since I've had so much fun painting.

    Random but good idea.
    Perhaps spending more time on it would make it a lot better but I like the idea of it.

    it looks weird but in a good way, I dont see it that much as a city but more as an ancient place in some ancient time, I like the random lines look and stuff.. but the things you put as clouds or I dont know...mist.. dont kind of hit on me..

    OOooOo, very cool. Native American legends say that the world is on the back of a giant sea turtle swimming through space. This image evokes that cosmic energy while being whimsical. Very nice.

    wow, awesome! two of my favorite styles, sketchy and painted! loves it~
    maybe a bit of smudging on the water strokes would be nice, but it's great as it is now too.

    Somehow, it actually looks small ^_^'... maybe a place for Lilliputians ! But the turtle is really cool (great job on the scales), and i love the way you drew the water. I like how the city is tied to the back of the turtle (like it could go overboard and sink !).
    I'd have to agree with alterlier about the clouds though. Otherwise, thumbs up :D

    I really like the colors in the background; it seems to brighten the picture up a bit. Keeping the taller spires of the buildings supported by the ties appears to be a good idea to me. The idea totally belongs in a book/game. Beautifully applied paint, and a very dramatic scene. Great work!
    Take care,
