I admire your scenarios, because are very detailed this is one of your best
I feel bad for just comment 'this is amazing' 'I would like to comment about every detail, it would not be impossible haha are thousands of details, it is fantastic and everything is very well done
My favorite details are the different light points, the cave and monster in the sky....and everything

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

DraakeT In reply to Wesley-Souza [2016-07-23 13:57:24 +0000 UTC]

really kind!! thanks a lot!
but i prefear little scenarios because with great scenarios keep all tones under control is something of epical and of course by by naturality. Sometimes i do these pieces exclusively because they show me my actual limits...and indeed this is my best, i can't do better for now
Using 1 background + 1 model for me is completely impossible understand these!
And always of course in work like this with tons layers even is organized is easy lose the control of differents aspects. Erik wrote something here ,about this.
Probably working with light points is one of the things i like do because really funny

Wesley-Souza In reply to DraakeT [2016-07-23 20:52:45 +0000 UTC]

yes with great scenarios it is more difficult to control the layers the result is amazing, welcome

ErikShoemaker [2016-07-03 06:46:01 +0000 UTC]

I like this version because I think the rain is pretty excellent! High quality, and it helps to blend things better. It goes well with the dense smoke too! I can really see the effort that went into this. Lots of beautiful details carefully blended, and nice colors. My favorite part is the ship behind the palm trees.
I could really critique only the right half of the picture. I believe the big skull doesn't blend so well; I would expect it to look like the silhouettes above the palm trees because despite the thick smoke we can see it pretty well. And I think the transition between the clouds and the water should be a bit smoother (the water is very saturated, although in the distance it should be covered by haze mostly).
Despite the critique I think it's probably one of your best works, if not the best! Keep it up!

Wow ! What great photomanipulation !
I like this great atmosphere of tempest with the skull in the sky, black clouds, rain falling across seeming like power, great waves, foliage of palmtrees in the wind. Very nice lightning ! Very great job ! I did not even recognize my photography which was used. Thank you very much for the use of my stock ! Have a sweety Sunday !  ;o)

DraakeT In reply to A1Z2E3R [2016-06-29 16:28:31 +0000 UTC]

up the door and not only the palms are well visible.  About the other image i used only some plant + sand in the first orange cave....well useful to build the ground of the cave and then i used the barrel etcc. on......and for this reason that is hard to be recognized.

im happy you like it. Thanks a lot
