    I said I was taking a break from Photoshop, but I had an idea and wanted to see how it would turn out.

    V2.1

    It's pretty minimalistic, but I like how it turned out.

    You did not do much, just darkened it and shrunk it...

    Still, your right! It looks good.

    I actually followed this tutorial, but with a few added changes. Like I said, it's very minimalistic. I'm thinking of adding texture to it, I'll put up version two when I'm done.

    EDIT - second version is up

    Yeah hardly anything has been done to it but I like how the text loks like billboard text onto of the buildings, thats very good.

    EDIT: oh no, V2 is worse, sorry. The effects don't fit with the image.

    This technique is supposed to be used with others. Otherwise you will produce a pretty plain image. But you've got it down pretty much stat.

    Anyway, the windmill in that tutorial has A LOT of potential.

    I faded the texture effects, I think they look a lot better now.

    Which is why added the textures to it

    V1 and V2.1 is almost no noticeable difference between some awkward looking thing you have now done to the sky.

    If you really wanna go at it, try vectoring some tenticles coming out from behind the building.

    Then people know you mean business.

    No thanks, it's supposed to be simplistic. Plus, I'm not a big fan Zalgo...
