After the giants warby *moonxels

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Illustrations / Conceptual

Once there were giants walking on this earth, fighting each other...fighting for what? For whom? Nobody knows...it was such a long time ago, it has all been forgotten in the shadows of time...now, those almost indestructible shells are the foundations of newborn cities...

that was my entry for the "newborn" contest at conceptart.

EDIT:wait a minute???what?a DD? how is that possible?
I was quietly replying at my comments like I do everyday ,and I was wondering why there was so much comments compared to every other days (I have usually just a couple of replies )
and what do I see?? Daily Deviation!!!
that's AMAZING thanks a million everyone!( and the one that made it happen)

EDIT 2:
I don't have enough words to express my gratitude to everyone,a DD is awesome!

EDIT 3:
here's the whole story:
a long time ago, humans builded the giants as the ultimate weapons to fight each others...but of course those fools lost control of all of them...the giants started to destroy humanity and the earth...only one giant was still controllable for an unknow reason,it was the most powerfull of all of the giants ,so he could wipe them all,thus saving humanity
it is believed that this giant was close to some kind of consciousness...so humanity survived and the latest giant eventually run out of energy and simply stood where it was "dying".

centuries later,explorers found it ,they went deep inside it,and only found a giant crystal that appeared to be "dead"
it was the main source of the robot's energy,everything inside was ruined , destroyed or rusted...the only thing that stayed intact was it's armour:an unknown and almost indestructible metal...so technically it's dead ,but what if someone could reactivate the crystal???

...meanwhile people live quietly on what was once a terrible war machine

Reminds me of the dead giant turned city in Ender's Game.

Brilliant idea! The sense of scale you manage to convey is really breath-taking. Well done!

This reminds me of something that Hayo Miyazaki would do.
Great work as well as great imagination. I love it and it's an instant fave!!

thanks a lot, miyazaki was certainly an inspiration!

Lovely. I like the overall piece, creatively, artistic technique & execution, color scheme, all of it. One thing that always annoys me when people paint fanciful cities, be they ancient castles or futuristic cities is the lack of necessary infrastructure, especially agricultural, to feed the teeming masses of citizens that must inhabit said cities. You, at least, included some cultivated fields in the foreground of the composition. Thanks.
