SciFi and Fantasy Art One night at the Waterfall City by Luis Filipe dos Reis Peres

I did this one because i wanted to try to create a very detailed landscape but using no detailed details in it. This might be confusing but if you look at the drawing you will see that the details are nothing more than simple shapes placed in the right places instead of elaborated drawings. Many people ask me how to create detailed landscapes, and so i decided to do this one as an example that you don´t need even to draw good to be able to create nice landscapes. Just do lots of basic shapes and learn where to place them. Then use color to call the viewers eye into the areas of the pic you want to show best, while making them not look at your mistakes usualy placed in the dark. Got it ? Ok then. Watercolor, color pencils, acrylics and black ink.

25 Aug 2002	John Teall	Loading... So much created by suggestion - it's good to see new LFdRP stuffs again - but you know i love your worlds - and those sea caves that inspired them i'll probably never see except in your picturs of them that you had up on your old site ... ~

1 Feb 2003	Tania	Loading... My favorite! Love the flatness of the city buildings,dramatic contrasts in the sky and above all the poetry of the scenery...I wish I had your patience!
28 Feb 2003	Hoffer802	Loading... God I love this. Its absolutely amazing. This is the stuff that good dreams are made of. Please, I beg you keep up the good work.
14 Mar 2004		Loading... Awesome, I like the bandit or thief in the tree on the right.
26 Sep 2005	Jens Tonnesen	Loading... You wanted to make a detailed landscape, and you very much did it. Very atmospheric and wonderfully dark. You almost get the feeling like you want to be there! Great work.
16 Feb 2006	A. Josephine Nordbø	Loading... This is so pretty! At least the prettiest town I've ever seen. Love your use of colours.
5 Oct 2007	Marta Villarroya	Loading... Waaaooo! I like this picture so much!! it seems so mysterious, it must be wonderful living there. The combination of colours is also beautiful. I´d love to be the lady handing a candle, the one on the left
30 May 2010	Patricia M. D´Angelo	Loading... Your experiment worked beautifully. Somehow though, I don’t think I’d be able to repeat it. Too much talent involved.
