City of Rognal

[- JO -]

What a beautiful castle (and you know how I like castles) in a beautiful landscape. I love the background where one discovers a part of the city: it is very intelligently done because the city does not occupy all the drawing, but one understands that it is immense (or at least very large). And the great place to the landscape opens completely the drawing and the imaginary. Finally I love the way you manage to combine the view from above, and the perspective view, on some of your drawings. It's always done in a natural way, without cutting the image into two completely foreign parts of each other .. It's really inspiring! (thanks Google trads...)

Damn!

And just when I thought I was over my infatuation with Trolnarm!

John!

I love it.... sigh....

I hope you are well now, and continue to improve if not

Hehe, Trolnarm rises from the grave!!! Mwahaha
Thanks Mouse I am doing... better. I think.

Mesmerizing illustration of the city, and the map too of course.

Thanks Voolf

That is incredibly kind of you JO
This one started life as the top drawing and I really was just going to do castles.
It sort of grew a bit and became a bit more. I did do some other sketches for castles and fortified cities.
So, those may make it to here or DA at some point.

I'm quite fond of castles too, JO, though I realized that I didn't actually have that many on DA, eventhough I have drawn/sketched quite a few.
That was part of the motivation to do some more finished pieces with castles.
