Description
With this piece, I wanted a real sense of scale. The theme is all about flight and trusting yourself. I wanted it to feel like a dream; the only way to find out if you can fly or not is to jump.Time: Approx 5-6 hours
Tools: Photoshop CS3 & Wacom Intuos tablet

The colors and perspective is just amazing.
I really dig the sense of scale, it really makes it feel like an adventure is about to start.

I disagree with the satement in the description actually: you can learn if you can fly by modelling aerodynamics on a PC and then moving up to wind tunnel tests, to see if you can get above the ground. It's best not to test if you can fly by jumping off high cliffs, or you'll end up like that boy we've all heard about dressed as superman.
But I do like the image and the sentimement in the description

Reminds me a lot of the WoW visual style. The stair-stepping grassy cliffs especially.

That's amazing, I love the color contrast you've used here. The sense of scale is really breathtaking as well!
Not looking forward to what happens after he jumps though *cringe*

Wow. I'd jump even if I couldn't fly, just to get a better view of the scenery on the way down. Or maybe land on one of those birds, Rescuers-Down-Under-style.

I had a dream almost exactly like this once, where if you really loved to fly you had to risk it all.

I absolutely adore this piece - especially the way the vista vanishes into the hazy distance. It's a difficult effect to pull off.
