End of Line Nine

[Dune]

Playing about with some stuff, including some undiscloseble alpha stuff.

Amazing work!

[Antoine]

Beautiful work again!
I am not sure, but it looks like there are a few white artifacts (the size of a pixel) on the mountains and the foreground rock at the bottom of the image.

Well I think there are two things that stick out.
1 the snow appears to be only in the shade, with some fuzzy zone. Which is rather interesting.
And 2 the form of the mountain is rather square for TG. And that is very interesting.

Do tell.

[Dune]

You're pretty sharp, Michael.  The tower is a triangular shaped simple shape raising a particular area, and after that a fractal warp with high impact, but small size and roughness. The snow angle uses the get normal (blue nodes) to get it on one side. The artifacts are hard to get rid of in this setup, especially since I used a displacement intersection + the get normal and had to use a coverage of 4 to have it show up. I'll keep digging to perfect this.

An intriguing fantasy! The technical merits are top notch as usual, but this whole image seems to be somewhat of a puzzle? Are there more than two Easter eggs here? This one makes me smile!

Nice project. First impression was, is this a photo. Then, maybe Earth millions of years ago. I think you're having some fun with this one. Maybe a change of clouds?

[Dune]

Yes, the clouds are an experiment; fractal warp applied to them, but it's no good, indeed. The terrain started out as an experiment with the rock tower, but when I saw the flattish area I had to put some small strange village there.

[Oshyan]

Huh, I actually kind of like the clouds...

I as well liked the clouds and was gonna ask how, but you beat me to the punch in your answer to Bob. Love the overall strangeness of the whole scene. Feels like what you said, built a mountain and stuff just kept suggesting itself into the scene. My fave way to work really.
