Description
The very final version. As I made a lot of mistakes concerning the contrasts and everything in the first version(s) of this picture, I decided to go over it once again. After spending another 3 hours of digital work on it, I think that the result looks a bit better, although it is still not really the dark, atmospheric picture I wanted to have. Anyway.

I changed nearly the whole background by putting about 5 different textures over the old one. It looks a bit darker now and has a higher level of detail. Minor changes were done on the flamy thing on the right (intensity), the text (copyright, lightened up a bit, Reach For The Stars-logo, darkened, Tower Of Babel - Under Construction... darkened). I also added a shadow at the bottom of the "human pyramid". The exhaust gases of the flying creature were totally changed from traditional to digital.

I hope you like all the changes, or at least some of them

And for those, who haven't seen the first release of the picture I'll just post the old description:

"Another ballpoint-pen image. I needed a lot of time to do the shading on all of these little bastards...

I tried a lot of different methods and textures for the background, but this combination worked best. The flame-thing on the right was originally created for a contest, but as I didn't post my image there, it is the first time to be released.

Don't give up! Keep on working and you'll reach your aims!

Enjoy! Please take the time to write a short comment...

And full-view, because else the one hour of posting would have been completely obsolete ^^ "
