Very good work, your sense of lighting is amazing! The little character on the lower right corner is a great addition, it shows the scale of the tree, very well done!
The composition is a little bit messy though, I wish it were driving more the eye on the character, it would be stronger IMO. Anyways, wonderful image!

Great coloring! I also really especially like the fish-eye lens effect you produced with the clouds. Nice work!

wow, kuang! photoshop!!!
it is amazing how significant your art is.
another outstanding piece. thank you for sharing.
especially after you have had so much trouble with people stealing your stuff all over.
well, the story is nice and it somehow makes the paint stronger
when i see all those thoughts behind it.
really atmospheric and nice.

Fantastic stuff, I think the bright orange is distracting the eye a bit by drawing attention away. Maybe a less bright rosy tint would be better... other wise no crits, as far as I know painting. :thumbsup:

Beautiful! You've been trying so many different types of paintings lately. I was away so I missed commenting on the past few, but I've loved them all. Yuo have such a unique style and your use of color is incredible. :)

great detailing and desings so congrats man!
going for crit now
nobody mentioned (at least as I can see after few mins of reading) but the left side waterfalls / water plane seem srewed in perspective. I know that its below eye level but if I see the water on the right side of the painting (its higher) and as my brain telling me water line cannot be bent in space (totally flat). Maybe you thought about two different lakes etc but it just seem strange to me - like the left water lake is bent over rocks or something...
just my two cents bro...
Anyway really cool piece!

It's a beautiful image but I'm not able to totally understand your perspective: it seems to be flattened right on the upper side of the tree.
Why not use a different image ratio? As example, using more pixels for its height :thumbsup:

Liking this as I like all your work :)
This is a tad different from your usual stuff - its got a good theme about it though, and I like the concept behidn it or rather the idea you're trying to egt across :)
As always the artwork is exceptional.
