Description


This past year i´ve fealt like i have been going nowhere in progress and pretty much just repeated the same old stuff, so this time i´ve decided to try something different for a change. Although i´ve done scifi landscapes before, this one is my first serious attempt of matte painting. Probably not the last one either... :) A small breakdown of the scene here. Photoshop & a Wacom tablet.

Just an incredibly peaceful image, Rudy. Love to have a huge print of this hanging on the wall.. but then nothing would get done, because I'd be completely lost in the scene.

This vista could be used in a Stargate (SG1) episode - solid pic quality as usual!

A matte that might work for a "Lord of the Rings" style epic.

Matte painting is fun - yes, it's nice to switch gears periodically, isn't it? Great job - I can definitely see this in a movie with birds flying by and some form of hustle and bustle up and down the rock columns - awesome image!

Wow, another rippin' image. It would be fun to try the "StillLife" app to make some pan & zoom movies of it.

Incredible work. Any chance of getting a walkthrough of how you approached this? I notice you have an affinity for dangling cables. :)

I can't really say much, cause I cant' do 3D very well and no 2D at all. But this is one of the most striking things I ever seen. I would totally love to see this sold somewhere in print form, I'd be the 1st customer!! SUCH AWESOMENESS!!!!

There's a wonderful depth to this piece - really love the foliage of the trees and the way it falls in and out of shadow. The highlights of the meandering stream is also beautiful. Great atmosphere. Looking forward to seeing more.
