Won 3rd place in a design challenge.
The brief: design something 100 years from now
Went with a Mars colony travel site. Retro-futuristic vibe, inspired by vintage travel posters mixed with sci-fi concept art
Pretty happy with how this one turned out

Really love the retro-futuristic atmosphere here 👌
The texture + color grading instantly sells that “vintage travel poster from the future” feel. Especially how the grain + muted tones keep it nostalgic while the composition still feels very modern.
Out of curiosity — did you start with the visual style first or the Mars concept?

Thanks Abhiram I started with browsing Mid Journey for mars related concepts, I found a similar post card style image and changed it until I got what I wanted

That’s a very interesting workflow 👌
Starting from MidJourney exploration → refining toward a specific aesthetic makes a lot of sense.
Curious — when you’re iterating like that, what usually guides your final selection more: composition or color mood?
