This was my entry to the Exotika - Digital Scenery Contest on Deviantart and winner of the first place. Entire modeling of the city scape done with Cinema 4D. Angel statues done with Poser. Cloudscape painted in Photoshop. All elements imported to Vue D'esprit for texturing, lighting and rendering. Planets, asteroids and birds are painted in Photoshop and composited after the final render. Scene contains 245 objects, 2 lights, 1,055,024,650 polygons. Final render took 18 hours. After this I've done the postwork I mentioned above.

This scene was one of the hardest I've work with. It was in my mind for a month - and I started to model some elements then saved and forget them on my hard drive. I kept working like that without having an idea for the finalization and then I saw that digital scenery contest and I decided to finish this scene and join the contest. Most important thing here for me is the hard work I put and the final result I got. I hope you friends enjoy...
