Nice one man!! 
I really like the colors and the mood. Maybe you could improve the distant buildings. Right now the transition between middleground and background buildings is a bit odd isnt it? Try to add a layer of haze/fog to enhance more depth. The river looks solid instead of water. I guess is for the reflections? Cool job man! |

wicked mat. its comming along really well.
one little thing: the sky on either sides of the central tower do not match up enough: the sunset seems cut off where it hits the tower. really strong piece mate: look forward to the final. |
