Hey! It looks like you're new here. You might want to check out the introduction.

Artist, everything about this positively drips with cool. The title is great, the landscape of servers is menacing...
Yeah. 👍🏻
Yeah. 👍🏻
Okay, we had Burton, a collab between Picasso and Munch, and now I see Beksiński. Not bad :)
"AI Paradise"
I translated this so you guys don't have to. :')
Love the shadows on this piece. The lighting immediately behind all of the computers is stunning and you have a very nice sky.

I like the scale of this piece, Artist. The monolithic server racks dwarf the lone human as they trundle along in the waning light of sunset, as the menacing glow in the gathering dark precludes even the solace of a dark night sky.
My one quibble would be that since the bottoms of the monoliths seem to slope down from right to left, it conflicts with their diminishing size to create the illusion of perspective. You'd want to have them slope up a bit to create the illusion of an eventual vanishing point.
Still, I like how you made the effort with the red indicator lights to differentiate one monolith from the next. That extra work is putting this pretty high on my slate.

The future will be copies, copies without end. A nice job of capturing our imminent despair. Upper tier.

Do you ever get that strike of inspiration where a concept just appears in your head fully formed? I can't say I'm familiar with that, but it happened this time, and I'm glad it did.

I'm glad you liked it so much. I mentioned this in other entry, but this image is much darker than how it looked in Photoshop when I saved the pic. Maybe it worked in my favour, hiding some of the less polished corners of the servers.

I'm glad someone recognised the Beksiński influence. AA72 is a beautiful painting, and I was immediately reminded of the tall, ghoulish figures surrounding the man walking when I read #silicon, and thought of blatantly ripp--I mean, paying homage to it with rows of server farms marking the progress of an ambiguous figure (it could very well be a cyborg) walking towards the light.
>>Anon Y Mous
I thought of a storm in the distance when painting the sky red. I'm glad you felt it was a positive addition.
>>Icenrose
Yeah, I wanted to play with the size of the servers and have them become smaller as they reach the edge of the frame so your eyes are drawn to the walking figure. I could've done more, but I feel that had I done a proper scaling and fade out it would have looked too similar to the inspiring piece.
>>GroaningGreyAgony
Thanks. Hopefully I'll get to draw something for future rounds, if time allows it.
Thanks to everyone who commented and voted so highly for this drawing. I'll do my best in the future, too!
