Very well done Ken! Excellent work! Have you checked out www.mattepainting.org? Some pretty neat stuff to find in there. Well done! :)
Absolutely impossible to see the difference between this and a real scenery. Magnificent work!

WOW !!! Excellent
Another one i am late with. Sorry again. You are an absolute master in creating mood. As we can see here. The pov combined with the mystique background is just fantastic. Especially the foamy water in the foreground makes the difference!
Amazing work on the foreground, but love the backgrond, too! Superb light!
Fine paint work here!
very effective method. i need to get some compositing skills - that's very much the way to go! the blue shade you have acheived for the night time scene is excellent. i'm ok with warm colours, but terrible with cold, so i really admire this piece all the more.
Very beautiful. The lighting and reflections are stunning as is the composition. Keep it up:)
Multiple sources blended and composed so well, with and end result pleaseing to the eye and interesting to the mind and heart. Excellent!
