Balcony
A lone figure watches from the balcony as a ship streaks across the sky, leaving behind more than just a trail of light. Inside, a familiar face waves—one last goodbye, or a silent promise to return? The city moves on, unaware, but for a moment, the past and present blur into something bittersweet.
The concept arose from the desire to immortalize the nostalgic feeling of meeting or leaving someone/something on the balcony, looking out over the city as if it were a jewel chest.
I made the buildings in Blender and then rasterized them in ClipStudio, adding details so that it would be consistent with the manga aesthetic.
The same goes for the balcony and the spaceship. I made them in Blender.
Next, Rus, my OC, is a spectator of the city. Added.
Finally, I add Myu, another OC of mine, and the speedlines that add to the ship's dynamics.
On a whim, I also made a day version.
