Cool city street, Barb! Love the colors and the dragon
This almost reminds me of the Album cover for Street Corner Talking by Savoy Brown with out the people
Crap shoulda remembered that link thingy don't work anymore
Very artistic and interesting image! Excellent work!!!
Clever work!
Only seen this prop once before, something I would love to use. But I guess it's a Daz product only. Looks most amazing dear Barb. 5++
What a cool idea! I love it! Many fine kudos!
Very cool image Barb, great idea and work love it.
("This looked better inside my head..."---first, I haven't written one piece of fiction that didn't sound much better in my head than it did on the page, lol...but more importantly, the ONLY thing I'd change about this is that I might sharpen it a wee bit...and that's all!) I LOVE this! You used great details for the 'facades', and I love the restaurant and other titles. I love the awnings and doors and very European windows, etc. And the spine that has vines growing up it (and maybe some butterflies---too small to tell, but they're some kind of enchanted creature.) In fact you have vines in other locations too, and a lizard climbing a lamp post, and a cat jumping to it, and a cat or dog in a tiny enclave (right side) and so on. With a beautiful clouded sky and a balloon!---this must be in the 19th C---and a dragon. Even a draw bridge between the volumes....I love this! Wonderful colors too. (You should look up Saul Steinberg, he drew facades on kitchen cabinets, books, chairs, boxes, etc. He didn't use your colors and lush details, but he had a similar idea.) Terrific, I love it..even the birds in the sky are wonderful. What an imaginative idea!
Wow, very cool and brilliant idea. Excellent!
I'm goin' down to Booktown gonna have myself a time,
Friendly faces everwhere humble folks without temptation,
I'm goin' down to Booktown gonna leave my woes behind.

superbly done. when I was in high school I loved reading. I volunteered in the school library and took a book home everyday and 3 on the weekend
Excellent, j'aime β₯
Wow' this has become breathtakingly beautiful!
This is so much fun...very clever idea :) Like that little dragon hanging out looking to make some trouble...and to escape it all, the hot-air balloon...
Things always look better inside one's head.... It's been working that way for me for close to 70 years.... LOL
This is delightful, Barb! I wanna live in the one with 'Tolkien' on the cover!
Wonderful! I love this
