Still: 2D: Kitschy Sunset

[colt]

Man this is nearly photo quality. I especially love the sky. How did you make those clouds ion the foreground? (the big one looks like a klingon battlecruiser ;) )
Only the gras in front is too uniform. Break it up with some different plants or a bush, reed. Maybe some "Schilfkolben", don't know the english word.

cooooooooooool dude!! makes me feel relaxed...:rolleyes:

amazing!!

The clouds are really nice ... and the trees ... remember me the Amazonia´s sunset.

But I agree about the grass ... it really could have some more kind of vegetation ...

congratulations! :applause:

you dont have to sell book or whatever (private joke:) )
this is good material
and never be ashamed of what you ve done .if you work hard
enough you will be able to do anything you want.
anyway
pay attention to detail on the grass it looks to regular
try to find some document or look to trees at sunset . in the center of the image (wher the sun goes down) the edges of the trees may be "burned" a little
i think more "holes" in your trees will be better but only were the sky is bright

your clouds color and light are great lots of detail but the big one on the top is a bit stretched on his center
maybe if you "erode"it (like the black one on the center left) it will look better.
and you should work on the detail of the right cloud near the trees it could be better

good painting

How did you make those clouds ion the foreground? (the big one looks like a klingon battlecruiser) Well there is nothing special about it- just watching, painting, watching, painting, watching and so on...:p BTW you are the third one telling me the clouds look like a klingon battlecruiser. I've never seen one... :shrug:

Thanks! Nice to see you in my thread :) I think everything you say is right, anyway I don't know wether I'll go over it again. I think I'll rather start an new pic...
But thanks a lot for your tips! I really apreciate that! By the way: are there any good tutorials on matte paintings in the internet? I've seen your website and it was a great help to watch the movie-files!
So if you have some more information you would like to pass: here I am! :wavey:

Greetings to all of you,

[XerC]

Wohoo! Thanks a lot guys! Really happy, you like it! :bounce:

I've made a short video out of my WIPs (the sky only). So if you want to download it. You'll find it here!
It's rather large, because i wanted to be able to navigate easily trouh it to see the seperated steps, so I couldn't use DivX :hmm: It's 2.8 MB large. Some MJPEG-Codec i think...

So enjoy! I'm happy if some of you will find it interesting or useful!

<edit> Sorry folks! I'm reaching my traffic limit so I can't host the avi any longer... Sorry about that! :annoyed:

Greetings,
XerC
