Title: How do I proceed with the two unfinished scenarios?

世界创造者完成的艰巨地形还远远没有结束。听听大家的意见。

Beautiful, but I fear your deer may starve! Both images are fantastic, however.  :)

These are both brilliant scenes. Since you are asking for opinions, though, here are some suggestions.

1) Perhaps add some dry grass or isolated, stunted trees in the deer scene? There should be some vegetation along the edge of the stream.

2) The water surface is perhaps too smooth, and the water itself is too blue? The edge of the water – where it meets the shore – also seems too smooth. If you used a mask, you might try increasing its size so the water surface slightly intersects the terrain.

3) Also, perhaps introduce some texture into the exposed rock walls – strata, or some subtle fractal shading – just to make them look more natural.

3) The haziness and light angle of the second image are beautiful, but the clear blue sky seems out of place. Perhaps a layer or two of light clouds might be added to complement the haze? Maybe not, though – this might just be a matter of personal taste.

These are very minor points. Your work is excellent.

The water seems like only a blue riverbed, so if you're using Daniil's erosion shader to get this terrain, use rivermode and there's a check to render river. If you can't make a river (if it's from an imported terrain or so), I'd suggest making it a dry riverbed, using the river mask, which you obviously have, to make some gravel/stony riverbed.

Yes, Fawn is already hungry. I agree with the surface and I will continue to make changes. On the mountain, I added clouds and flowing water. thank you all.
I am still studying the surface function of the river, using Daniel's erosion shader, now it is just a river bed.

This is a striking, beautiful composition. The waterfalls are a nice touch.

Very beautiful!
What I especially like is that the composition makes me curious to follow the canyon to look what's behind :)

0126194020.jpg is a winner.

All I would do is pump that sunlight up a little. The sun would smack the beejeezus out of that hillside.

I temporarily put aside the winter scene. I adjusted the lighting in this valley according to your suggestions to make the picture more dramatic. I also plan to add some buildings somewhere.
One place I went to this scenic area last summer was Taihang Mountain in Shanxi, China. At that time I wanted to reproduce it in tg.

I wondered if this was inspired by a real location. Very cool.

Great use of Daniil's plugin.

For the first scene, I actually like it rather bare. Heck a lot of caribou migration shots are done with vegetation either completely under the snow, or none visible in aerial shots. Tundra plants don't work off heat transpiration, and work only off UV transpiration, and do not grow tall. Mainly ground cover besides the long strands of grasses.

Natural landscapes for Caribou are pretty barren besides populations in lower hemisphere, which are usually a result of domestication and farming.

Your response is my motivation. I tried to add some buildings. I only modeled one of the towers, but the smoothing group problem always appeared after exporting obj. I am trying to check previous posts to find the answer. Or can someone give me some tips?
I used to be able to fix it before, but this time I tried for a full day.

Pose ray? Subdivisions?  Export from Poseray obj with a new file name....tower2 or something similar so not to change original obj.

Resolved, it is possible to reset the smoothing group using Poseray. The smoothing angle is set to 30. Thanks Kadri.

I'm trying new composition and adding some buildings, and upload the results in two days. Here are some pictures I took there. The magnificent mountains are very attractive.

WOW I had to go back to examine your first images of this. I thought perhaps you were just cropping in some things in a real photo. You have done a great job here. Congrats! :)

Beautiful finish! The light catches and highlights the cliff and temple perfectly.
