Title: Flowers in the sunshine
Name: Nguyen Loc Khoi Nguyen
Country: Viet Nam
Software: Photoshop

After seeing lot of old photographs from one of my vacations a long time ago, there was a beautiful sugar cane forest where green is everywhere and the sunshine went through thick foliage create very nice stream lights. And when trying to create an image of that, I really want to mix some warm flowers ^_^ (like the elders always want to do in their old art) ... here's the result .
My first 2D artwork, C&C

Very nice Background detail on the Bamboo and sugar cane as you say etc. It is very stylized and I think it is very close to the goal you were trying to achieve. I think you should experiment on having more bold line work or different line color (ie black) for the woman details. I also think you should check out using vector graphics in Illustrator then use photoshop to finalize the piece. Good attempt :thumbsup:

Yeah, thank for your comment ^^, I'm very new in 2D art, now I'm only using Photoshop for 2D stuffs, maybe I'll try Illustrator sometime, thank for advice.
In 3D I didn't have to care alot about line, light, shadow, etc ... since the 3D program did it so good already. So I thought I should try to do it on my own, then I soon relized it's hard. ^_*
