Ashen Gate - City Banner

Generated from: A gloomy, apocalyptic dark-fantasy city painted in wide panoramic view. Two enormous towering mountains frame the scene, and between them stands a great massive stone gate. The city's buildings cling to the steep mountainsides and cluster in dense broken tiers at the foot of the gate - crooked towers, leaning roofs, spires, ruined walls, clustered like barnacles on the rock. Heavy atmospheric dust and ashen haze hangs in the air, a low oppressive overcast sky. Ruined, decayed, post-cataclysm mood. Hand-painted illustration in the style of a classic dark fantasy concept painting: visible expressive brushwork, soft edges, matte atmospheric depth, dry-brush texture on stone. Muted desaturated palette of ashen grey, dusty ochre, dim warm brown and cold blue shadow - no bright saturated colouri. Panoramic wide banner composition, horizon low, mountains rising to the top edge. No text, no watermark, no border.
