Description This one is another one of those images that wasn't planned, so i just let it become what it is.....some kind of gathering is happening at the warped structure, some pre- battle prayer if you will, before the soldiers go and fight, for......who knows??

Started in Painter, then finished in Photoshop...about 3-4 hours..

This is a great piece, love the atmosphere , specially the warm colors at the background and how do they contrast with the cooler ones at the foreground. Excellent color manage, I think that is what impress me the most.

Landscapes are very hard to do... at least they are to me but you have achieve a great style, wich is highly detailed and very well composed.

Im very impress by all your works, you have any tip about color management? or is just about testing? I,ve tried to do some landscapes but they're not so good. (Im, gonna watch ya)

Well, good luck in everything

This is pretty incredible. You should consider going into production design, a compilation of these images would make great framework for a movie. I have 100 ideas just looking at your stuff, awesome.

This is fantastic! Your work reminds me of the concept art for Star Wars (if your'e like me and not a fan, that was definately a compliment - there were some amazing concept artists for the Star Wars films).

Keep up the amazing art!

Awesome work, and thanks for the tutorial... Little insights like that really help. The only thing you should probably watch out for is having things that are supposed to be perpendicular to the ground being at slight angles. You should just do a horizontal flip every so often if you don't already.

Trust me man, I'm flippin' all over the place..but thanks for lookin' out.....I end up leaving some things tilted for a more 'vertigo' effect.

You need to do a crummy one now - You're getting repetitive.
