The giant bag of rubbish is a nice touch. It really makes a statement about the direction of modern society.

Did you use a specific program for that or did you do it in photoshop from scratch?

Inspired by my trip to San Antonio, I painted the Tower Life Building. I like it because it's kinda of odd. It has octagonal floor plates based on an asymmetrical podium. It's also jammed right up next to the river walk.

You should do a whole collection of them, notable buildings from various cities.

very large paper city you got there

the temprature hawe been down to minus 20 celsius while i hawe been making it.

the freezing take around 3 days and then it depends on how many buckets u got and how high u want to go.

my last freezing took ages since i tried to save my buckets from destruction by fast expanding ice by freezing the ice in sections. then the freezing took about a week.

a tower can usally be finished whitin a day if it is built in thick sections some times u need too w8 for it too freeze before adding another layer on top.

and u need a shitload of buckets i think i hawe destroyed around 10 buckets by now
