Great environment! great painting! It is a matte painting right?

[franckkobolt]

Hi,
you did a great job on the trees, rocks and leaves, I guess these are the parts that needed custom brushes
you are talking about. The light glow effect behind the clouds is well rendered. Contrast fading on faraway parts
is good too.

[breathing]

great!
you are good at environment creation!

:thumbsup: great work~

[inky2]

Beautiful fantasy image,Daniel. Like always.

[zpapageo]

Beautiful work :thumbsup: The lighting and textures are superb.

One small crit about the scale, though. By setting the massive trees as a repeated element, one can assume they are all roughly similar sizes. And the background trees look massive.
The foreground trees are smaller, but they are similar enough to the BG trees to be part of that pattern, which diminishes the effect of size. I think if the foreground included a portion of a giant tree limb it would better show the true scale of the background.

But that's just my opinion, sorry for the long and probably unclear post. I still think its a great piece. Cheers.

[Ryoka]

Good composition !!! Amazing work ! Bravo !

[Sallow]

Great work, reminds me of a child seeing fantasy movies for the first time as the camera pans up to show the vastness of a new world.

[Collateral]

wow excellent detail on the scene! loving the colour and detail of everything! 5 star

[Collateral]

excellent detail! great scene layout and awesome colour too! 5 star

[mashujun]

only one word....perfectly

[Bliz]

That's a great piece of work. The only thing that niggles me is that the cloud with the sun behind it looks like it was based on a photo that was taken at a higher angle than you have placed it in your scene i.e. to me the perspective of the cloud doesn't look right, I feel for the cloud to match perspective properly that it should be further up the sky.

[carlsden]

I love every bit of it. simply amazing and beautiful

[Joscci]

Critique...? What's there to critique... can Perfection be critiqued? lol...

No, seriously... impressive piece of work. Is this all hand made? or are there photographic elements to this composition.... especially the clouds in the background?

:buttrock: -- Awesome.

[Kyena]

[Roundabout]

good very good..
amazing work..

[Raphael-Lacoste]

Sweet! nice deph and palette!

I think regarding scale, your huge trees could have very small branches like normal ones, and you may want also to add a stronger direction in your lighting, highlights and more Key light on your foreground.

Best

[Tigaer]

the front looks a bit too cut out... but still... a damn sweet job for sure. :)

[Velarion]

Great painting. I always like the paintings that have sci-fi look.And this is a masterpiece for me.It's colors..the design..painting quality..it's great.

[Voron]

Flying stingrays in a dynamic engulfing environment. Oooh nice formula... :drool:

[Loulu79]

Very strong piece. The only crit from me ... is that the realism look isn't properly balanced. Everything I see is great...but if it weren't for that out of this world sky....to me the rest of the work will have to top that out. The sky to me is the most close-to-realism, and makes the rest obviously unreal.

That's the sick part. And that's my two cents.

[Tilko]

It rocks :bounce: ! Incredible work !

Congratulations

[lilCara]

Great job, really great composition, amazing detail.

How much of it is photo and how much is painted?

[SHEjK]
