Description
Ok, this is the last time I am posting this image, but I had to do a version with the castle only.
This is the way it looks best in my opinion. Hope you like it. (Oh, and now the file is 50 meg instead of 300 meg) Just a little added benefit.

AWE INSPIRIGN & MYSTERIOUS ! GREAT ATMOSPHERE !
Love the mood and the lighting. Castle is Awsome. wondering why my images never look like that in bryce lol
Excellent atmosphere. Love the mountain in the background too.
Fine work.I am impressed with this.
Impressive and wonderful image! Excellent done:)!!!
Terrific texture work on the ground and moutains.
Fantastic artwork!!!!!!!!!!V
Wonderful image!!Excellent job again!!!
OK that mountain in back is just plain awesome. How did you make that?!
I made the mountain, using several Bryce terrains. The terrains used here were set at 1024 resolution and generated using the metamorphism fractal generator. I generate each one till it makes a pattern I like, then I bring it into the picture and tilt it up about 45 degrees and spin it till it looks like I want. (Yes you can see the flat bottom and edges at that point) I then place others around it in a cluster until all edges or gaps are covered. For texture, I used a photograph of some huge eroding dirt piles by my house, which look like little mountains. Thats basically how I do most mountains, but I use varying fractal generators for different types. The metamorphism one used here is great for rocky mountains with no trees.
Very impressive! Great work with the castle and your textures are superb. That mountain gives the whole scene a truly epic feel.
Agreed, this is my favorite of this castle as well! And what a castle it is... A masterpiece, your mountains are beautiful, your castle looks fantastical, and the bony gnarled trees are a great touch!
magicccccccccc fantastic image!!!"vote":DDD
I like this one the best. It leaves the viewer open to self-interpretation of a storyline (being a writer!) Love those trees and so...like...how much is the rent here? :D
Color choice & materials work well together. Great Scene!
Completely majestic setting. Wonderful faerie-like backdrop. Excellent stuff!
Excellent piece Melizod. The subdued lighting really breathes life into this picture. The atmosphere, and composition couldn't be any more perfect. Great job!!!
Great ! Very great ! This is by far my favorite of this castle serie. Deleting characters add strength to the picture indeed. And all your great work on modeling castle, moutains, trees, setting textures and light is best shown. I'd like the both characters in foreground in your previous picture though. Hope one day I will be able to do such beautiful pictures. (Thanks to you I'd bought Bryce5. :) )
Very impressive, modelling work on the castle is truly outstanding.
