gimp was used for manipulate the background, again derived from a old Flemish paint
...in this case seems that i failed to properly bookmark the page but hopefully some reversed image search engine will trace the author ...
EDIT
About the background is my personal reinterpretation of " Ansicht von Château de Fontainebleau Künstler Martin " from Pierre-Denis II. (1663-1742) actually in the Museum Musée national du Château de Fontainebleau
The (poor!) reproduction i manipulated was included in a gigantic pack somehow related with some google art project, a pack with a LOT of images ( all carefully mislabeled to avoid any risk to give indication about original title , author and owner )

In foreground created with M3D a new evolution of my "nomadic Temples idea...

Wow PC; your architectural creations have gotten better and better. Who knows what the future will bring. May even be able to create these amazing things in a blink of an eye one day.

Thank Lylejk
i am uploading now , as 2048x1536 wallpaper a new version on DA , i tried to increase a bit the contrast without spoiling the atmosphere

this is the same but scaled down for GC (scaled down but still usable as 1200x900 wp :cool

)

Lovely city PC, I think I would like to go there. Beautiful hues of green and orange.
How do you do that, do you draw all those backgrounds and people, Then how do you make those tower things? Are they generated?

Great, that looks so cool!
I prefer the second version with increased contrast.

The background is derived from a old french paint , i don't know much of the author , except the name and dates " Pierre-Denis II. (1663-1742) ", that i modified with gimp

That was loaded as background image (you may think as a background layer ) and on that i rendered the 3D object, in this case the temple

thank..and yes the first was maybe more in tone with a old paint but i too prefer more contrasted

PS There are some details that are no visible at the size displayed by Gimpchat ... maybe are visible enlarging , for sure are clear looking at full size here

Let's say that even if the larger Temples have a not too unusual architecture , in the most little are several examples of quite weird structures

...but many minor nested Temples are reserved to the most exotic and oblique Deities and the shape of the Temples is functional: ... obviously to worship at best bizarre, oblique Deities bizarre,oblique Temples are required !

photo comix: i like the second version best too - i think it works well with the contrast, the temple is in the foreground and closer to the viewer, so higher contrast than the background is just natural.
