Finished this some time back. Just now reminded myself to upload it. I was trying to challenge myself to do tilted strata within a very hazy and hot arid environment with a mix of grassy vegetation. The object is something I put together within Terragen but as to what it is... maybe a crossroads or warning.
I really like that form in the back there. Would love to see some small versions of that idea too. Sorta maybe house sized or smaller in the foreground area.
I really like the rough and dry mood. You can almost smell the air. Only crit is that the vegetation looks too regular. Each instance points exactly 90° up in the air. Maybe you could tilt them randomly or even use another plant model with more curvatures?

The hill in the center?

I considered tilting the grass slightly. Certainly doable.
Great work! :D
I like the muted colors and hazy day effect.
I believe the foreground object is a Medieval torture device. Most likely a prisoner "sitting" post from the time of Vlad the Impaler.
Yet it could be a very bad early prototype holder for enormous paper towels. :)
Wonderful dusty, dry feel. the rock formations in the background are excellent.
Clouds are superb!
Beautiful work Chris. I agree about a mixed orientation of the dry vegetation. Maybe a slight variation in their color as well?

It is possible that it is a device of evil. ;) I think the initial idea was a hanging cage but then I thought it might have been to obvious, lack of mystery.

I am working on the orientation but I thought I mixed the colors so I have to look into that again.
very cool... love the strata tilt and the clouds too!

Updated but the alterations may be too faint?
I'm convinced this is much better Chris.
Yes, very nice indeed!
