Sky of Hope

Well, I finished all my jobs in school today and had some extra time. I wanted to make a new wallpaper for my computer.

So, hope you like it:

1280x1024 NO TEXT
1280x800
1920x1200
1920x1200 NO TEXT
Also, I realized most people with the large resolutions 1920x1200 are likely to have either an HDTV or glossy surface screen, so I tweaked the colors up slightly to make it looks a bit better on those.

I was thinking of a previous thing I made called "City of Fear" when I made this. My "City of Fear" piece was a dark/orange city, and showed a massive blob above the city dumping all this technical/industrial garbage onto the buildings, while sucking out natural things like plants, and life.

You can see that piece here:

The vector piece is fantastic.

Wallpaper is pretty good, too.

It's like Japan's rising sun meets America's kick-ass-ed-ness. =p

Care to make one fit my Macbook's resolution? (1280 x 800?)

I would say 1920x1080 to make it more standard.

No, people with 16:9 can crop. I can't crop more pixels in height.

I have an idea. Just make a 10,000x10,000 version and let people crop to their desired resolution.

Do it.
Do not now.

I don't like having text in my wallpapers. The one thing stopping me.

Why you don't have Graphics Emblems is appalling. Great work.

What did you use for the birds? I presume a brush. Commercial or Home-Made?
