Ok but I misread the title as “Pallet Town” and for a moment thought this was going to be an absolutely incredible Pokémon game.

I mean that in the best way, of course! Well done!

Holy fuck this is incredible. If people would stop posting titty paintings every 5 minutes, amazing stuff like this would actually get upvotes.

Edit: looks like this masterpiece blew up anyway

It looks great. The only thing that irks me is the sun appears to be on the left but the moon is showing a near lunar eclipse meaning the sun is behind the “photographer” and since the lunar eclipse is also highlighting the right hand side of the moon it would mean that the sun is on the other side of the world, thus this should be at night and overall not possible. But not an astronomer.

I think leaving the moon out or make the bright side the left side of the moon so it matches the location of the sun would make it more realistic.

This is sooooper well done imo. The lighting and texturing really impressed me, as well as color values used. Keep it up!

That’s assuming op wants their piece to be realistic.

Why not have 2 suns? Maybe there’s an alien spacecraft out of view shining a giant pink spot light on earth? What if it’s a solar eclipse and not a lunar eclipse? Maybe it’s from the point of view of someone on psychedelics? Maybe nothing is eclipsed and it’s just an exaggerated crescent moon shape? Or an artistic interpretation of how we embellish memories? Who cares, it’s not scientific illustration.

By all means having accurate astronomical depictions can be of the upmost importance for many artists and art styles but it’s not a requirement.

OP that night sky is mystifying! ✨💫 the telephone poles look esp detailed. I love it 💜💖

Pretty sure it's Japanese inspired. Utility poles are very Japanese city esque, the signage is in Japanese. The marking on the road in the left lane resembles "止まれ" (Tomare), which means stop. Even the roofs seem like roofs you'd see in the suburbs of Major cities to me

If someone ever asked me what word is beyond enraging, it’s “relax”. Shut up.

Off-topic: I’m insanely jealous of your GD Lithuanian dream team shirt (and shorts). I emailed the artist like, a month ago bc I want to buy a shirt, but I never heard back. I also tried the Lithuanian Cultural Center (or w/e it’s called) but they also don’t have smaller sizes…any vendor suggestions?

Is there a higher resolution, or some kind of link where i could download it from? I want to use it as my lock screen.

I think it says おとせ (otose), probably スピードおとせ as in "lower your speed". Anyway the car number plates and clusterfuck of powerlines are undeniably Japan. In saying that, the overall vibe does feel very much like Australia.

But am I the only one that thinks this was AI generated from real photos with maybe some editing added on after?

Sorry OP, if you really did do this all by yourself, please take it as a compliment, but I'm just not convinced.

I wish op mentioned that this was just a photoshopped picture because I thought someone actually drew this, nice but still good to make it clear.

I’m not sure of OP’s methods but you can also draw in photoshop. It’s possible it’s photo manipulation but it is listed as digital as it’s type of creation. Either way they put in a lot of work to achieve this end product. I prefer drawn myself but that doesn’t diminish other techniques as forms of art.

If the buildings were more Japanese style, this would 100% give me rl sailormoon vibes. Still looks SM with the sky and moon. I love it!

edenslovelyshop t1_jdw5yow wrote

Oh I know, but just like me, many others thought from the title that it was a digital painting, aka drawn from scratch. And op stated already it was a photoshopped image. Maybe we should start adding either a digital painting as a valid type, or photo manipulation.
