Zootopia at night
.
A time of magic; the sun has set and the city is aglow with bright lights. Couples stroll beneath the neon or sit together gazing at the moon and stars, perhaps wishing on a falling star. Memories return, some good, and some you wish would stay away.

And it is also a time of danger, time when the city’s criminal element stirs from its hideouts, and the ZPD makes ready to meet them.

And so today we present collection of artwork dedicated to nighttime in the city of Zootopia.

Enjoy,. and don’t forget to show the original artists some love by clicking on the source links.

Get your art after the break!

But then, why would you want to resist?  Cuddling on the skytram.

Of course, not every evening you spend together ends pleasantly.

And if you’re with the ZPD, some evenings are strictly business.

Judy in Tac-Gear, on nighttime SWAT.  Judging by the look on her face, I’d say it’s about to go down.

Okay, so maybe it’s NOT all business with the ZPD after dark

Sometimes you just need to get away from the city when the sun goes down. (Especially when the thermometer goes up.)
