This is a neat idea. I never thought about how thw cliff
dwellings in Colorado would have looked had there been water in the canyons.

:-) Darrell Scott Pestana replies: "Thanks,I really enjoy working with Teragen, but the pics I created first were rejected here, so I had to add something to it. And the thought of cities built onto the cliffs was intriguing to me."

An intriguing design. As for suggestions? Um... I guess the mountains could use reflections across the water. I'm very bad with backgrounds though, so I shouldn't talk! 14

:-) Darrell Scott Pestana replies: "I am not sure what to do with this, I think I am going to stick strictly to pencils and pens in the future."

:-) Darrell Scott Pestana replies: "sorry it took me so long to respond, Timmey. yea I have to fix that, and I think I have a way of actually doing it now...thanks"

I like this alot! I love the way you blended textures... LOL...hey, it looks like you put slivers of the Borg cube in the cross section of the cliff side! Nifty! I really am impressed by your skill in manipulating these!

:-) Darrell Scott Pestana replies: "Hi Dani, God I'm sorry I never responded to this comment, I kept forgetting it was here, thanks for liking it, I never saw the resemblance to the Borg ships tho...kewl thought, thanks again"

I usually despise 3-D looking art, since I am quite old-fashioned with 2-D stuff. Nevertheless, I was truley taken by this unique idea. BUT, the ring around that planet is yuck. should be more...elongated idunno

:-) Darrell Scott Pestana replies: "Thanks for commenting, I agree about the ring, I may try to fix that sometime"
