Deserted streets and alleyways
Greetings leadheads,
I'm in the process of redoing my town, making streets wider , redoing buildings generally just making more work for myself. Its not done yet but I thought I would put up some shots.
Very 'atmospheric' even until shadowy dudes hanging about on street corners and in dark alleys... Reminds me a little of the town in the Clint Eastwood movie, 'High Plains Drifter'. One touch does lighten the mood a little: that fruitful pumpkin patch behind the hardware store... :-)
The town is fine work, Capt. Bigger streets, alleys, and walks between houses are wonderful for big clumsy hands and fingers when gaming. You pulled the "practical" off and it still looks great.
would you mind coming and helping me the streets of La ley??? your buildings are superb and the lighting is great! and I guess that if you will never be done, we can all expect more to come
Wow, Captain!!
ReplyDeleteyour work is so beautiful!!
Do you really think that you will finish it ??
I like the figures who appear in the deserted streets....
Great shots Captain
