So cool! Well done on the painting and the animation. I never realized how seldom I see city scenes in watercolor; it's always landscapes.

That’s amazing! How did you do that? And where in Philadelphia does it represent? I haven’t been there in years and was wondering if it was someplace I knew. Looks like it’s close to Center City. Coming in from the south, perhaps?

I was gonna guess market st looking east around the schuylkill. Then I was gonna guess Delaware Ave around penns landing. I love it. I lived close to that neighborhood for a while

I'm not seeing Green Man, Taiwan Tammy, or Dr. Mantis Toboggan. How can you have a painting of Philly without those sources of culture?

Look through her profile, she has others like this from other cities, though this one is simply outstanding.

Sick art though, for real.

This is gorgeous. Amazing work!

I miss Philly a lot as a Marylander. I don't get to the city like I used to.

At least I have my Flyers........

Dude this is so awesome. Haven't been back to Philly in so many years, but this makes me feel the energy of the streets. Great work!

This is really cool! Is the watercolour painting done digitally or on paper and scanned in?

majozaur OP t1_irf4vgj wrote

the day watercolor is regular watercolor painted on watercolor paper and scanned, the night version I created in photoshop by adding gradients

Love the work! That would also make for a great printed time of day triptych.

I have a day version available as a print I can send you a link if you wish.

This looks great, though I doubt you’re from Philly. Not a single dumpster pool party or biker getting hit by a car in sight! 😉

So here’s how I know I’ve been abroad too long. I was watching this and thinking “why isn’t it going from red to red and yellow then to green”. I forgot that in America it just changes form red to green. 😂

Is this a repost? Already saw this last week.

You are very talented and this is great work but if this is supposed to be Philly, isn't it missing Eagles fans physically assaulting opposing fans? Worst fans in the country. They are way too many bad people in that crowd and too many others providing cover and excuses for them. I'm embarrassed for that city.

You forgot to animate the death of the hitchhiking robot.

I really like the look, would be great for a movie/short film or even video game/visual novel!! Great work, you should put it in an art exhibition or something!

Huh. Ya know, I don't think I've ever seen an animated watercolor before. Interesting.

I like city scenes in watercolor. Especially Philly!

Having the U-turn lane to the right of the left-turn lane means that U-turning traffic is going to cross into the path of traffic turning left, unfortunately causing collisions.

This is lovely, much better than what I thought it was, an animated pedophile.
