Description
The Finale art continues!I couldn't leaf it alone, although I had to branch out away from the characters a bit.
This piece challenged my approach and then I cut corner
Changed the initial perspective a lot. That box was like 10 times bigger at first, trying to create a low camera. But noooo, monkey had to go more passive.
Did end up including a bit of Applejack because of that though! Show at least a slight story to it.
Anyhow, darn... tree, I ain't used to this shape and the light setting didn't help either. So many glowy bits. I should maybe redefine my approach a bit with this kind of piece.
Crystal stuff.
I guess maybe these kinds of materials come a bit less natural on the cleaning&detailing part. Where with characters I can do things like little hair strands or fur on a defined shape, crystal trees require something else. Oh well, hehe.
Silly monkey also just "rushing" through it a bit. Maybe not my strongest piece in the S4 Finale line
Approx Time: 8,5 hours

Maybe I want to 3D model this scene. You make it look AMAZING!!
Great DOF and detail, and I love how it's 100% lit from the luminous plants and gems, and looking more into it now even a little starlight in the scene.
And you really did all this in 8.5 hours!! Stunning

Very cool! It's nice that the mane 6 are an accent instead of the focus.

dayum..i don't know what your problem is ponkey, but in contrast to, eg your spike picture from the Equestria Games episode this is waaaayy cooler ^^
i think this looks gives the tree more of a glassy look then a crystal look wich is, in my opinion, even better

Seriously, how do you do it? How can you transform everything you touch into pure gold?

You managed to include Applejack, despite the original concept XD
It looks fantastic ^^ Love the ilumination effect.

Very well done! But at first I have to say at first glance I thought AJ looked like a tour guide.. Due in part to those comics that have been floating around recently. But brilliant regardles! Though I would recommend a bit of work on the texture of the upper half of the tree, looks a tad too sinewy for the crystalline nature of the tree. But very good job on the overall composition! Love the sense of depth.
