Artist's Comments

Well... this one caused a lot of work for me. It took a while until I have found the right POV and the surface that way as it is now. Three broken trials to render it completely... The first time, I noticed (after 6 hours of rendering) that the water was too transparent, it looked artificial and.. .weird. The second thing was the Strata I used. Same thing... too artificial!

Today I worked on it, changed the Strata and removed the WW Water Opacity-Plugin. Then I rendered... but noticed that a cloud was blocking the sun! ARGHS! Stopped rendering... checked and changed the sun a bit... then the cloudscape!

Then, finally, I started to render it again! And THIS is the result out of it now!

Took 8 hours and 34 minutes to render completely. Used tools: World Machine v1.0 Basic, Terragen v0.9.19, IrfanView 3.97, MS Paint (for creating the basic shape of the terrain).

Wow! Very nice! Makes me think of a remote Scottish island.

Danke. :D Ja... das liegt am Terrain. Mal gucken, was ich da machen kann. Ich werde es jedenfalls wohl nochmal überarbeiten (siehe sanosoke's Kritik).

This is a cool terrain. The water is not bad, bbut looks a little too constant. I would bring some of the water features down, like the one that works with the terrain structure. Surface is not bad, but could be greatly improved. If you added a little yellow/brown to the grass color, and upped the slope constraints, I think it would be nicer, and definitely needs some constraint on the strata. The atmosphere could a lot more "ping" to it. Maybe with a little more red thrown in there, and some lower, thicker fog. Nice work though
:iconzipclaw:
Hm... "Ping"... what do you mean "ping"? Fog is a nice idea. Would look cool! :)

Thanks for your worthful critics. I think I will redo it considering your suggestions. :)

Sorry, what I meant for the atmosphere was basically a little more contrast. Give the atmosphere something else that's more defined and more alive and tangible. It's hard to describe, but you'll understand if and when you find it
:iconfastclaw:
Lovely.
