Catching the Sun (part 2)
I am working on the second part of the Catching the Sun series (if you missed the first part then have a look at my last post) The series is about harnessing the sun. This time I wanted to illustrate the city harnessing the power of the sun. It is partly present and partly futuristic,…

Wow! Hi is such a handsome guy! I love the final video. I had guessed his name to be Zion so was wrong! You must be so proud and sad to have him go.

As it played, I couldn’t help thinking it was like a great big 3D puzzle and then I noticed the name of the music! I think Zillion is going to have loads of admirers. If you don’t mind I’d like to put a link in my blog to your post with the video on it. Congrats on a fantastic looking Lion.
Thanks Cheryl
