Dawn Over a New World WIP

[neuspadrin]

Kinda practice and a possible image for the NWDA contest.  Getting close to how I want it, still a few more tweaks and additions/subtractions I plan.

Credits:
Foreground, grass on opposite water edge, background trees: Walli
Background grass: Klas
Atmosphere: NWDA Sunset Atmosphere Pack (been having fun with that poking around a little)

Promising. The grass on the opposite edge seems a bit too big perhaps, and too evenly distributed. Are you deliberately going for a monochrome look?

I like it. I also like that serenity that partially comes through the sepia style coloring.
Shame it's not rendered larger. From what I can see at this small size, the far shore grass is sort of ... huge. However you have a very nice mood captured in this render and the forground details come out nicely despite the frontal sun.

Cheers,
Frank

Yeh the grass is a little too large over there thats one of my todo fixes, also to fix its distribution up a little.

Sorry it's not a bigger render yet, quad core that does most my rendering is packed up for move so I only have my duo laptop to render.  Also it requires ray traced atmosphere to get the rays in there and get the lighting to look a little better, which took a hit on render time .

Ill probably get a higher quality/resolution image started sometime early next week once I get back home for a bit and can set up desktop for a bit.

Cool idea.  The lighting from this angle (direct on) is the hardest to work with, but the foreground looks pretty good.

Nice. I'm really liking the rays in the background.
