Decentraland University concept art, The Observatory
<h1>Decentraland Observatory Interior, Digital Concept art</h1>

Hello! Here is a look at what I've been working on recently. This is a digital illustration I did for the [Decentraland](https://decentraland.org/), [University District](https://twitter.com/dcluniversity). Yes, this aims to be an actual VR University on the blockchain :) 

Here is the [DCL UNI Steemit page](https://steemit.com/@dcluniversity).

The plan is for a 3D artist to make a model based on my illustration. Once it's been created, it can be loaded into the VR world. I can't wait to see this!

I'm working on the exterior concept art now. Very exciting stuff. Take a look below at the design process. You can see every step from early sketches to final illustration. I'm actually still using Firealpaca as I lost my Manga Studio program. It really does the job nicely and will work fine until I upgrade.

I'm actually a big fan of manga line art. I think the black and white final is my personal fav :)

**Thanks very much for coming to take a look at what I'm working on. I'll be posting more concept art as well as my my own digital illustrations. See you next time!**

Awesome work!
Funny I came across this now cause last night I was looking at the stars thinking of getting out the telescope. 
Steem on :)
