Explorers 3.0 - V5

[Gannaingh]

A long time ago I submitted an entry into the first NWDA art contest and even now it is still probably my favorite picture that I've done. I've decided to come back to it to see what I can make of it now that terragen and myself have come a long way. this is just the first draft of what will hopefully become a fatty poster on my wall I think the place to start would be to reduce the noise in the water, then move onto improving the clouds in the background.

My, my. It's incredibly realistic. The fog is awesome.

First thought was the sound when that rowing boat hit the shore  Most realistic, nicely done!

[airflamesred]

My only crit would be the fog disappears abruptly in the tree area. Having said that I would buy a print.

[Gannaingh]

Thanks everybody! I'll post the next iteration when school gives me a chance to work on it.

A few footprints around the landing site would be nice. At least a hint. Great composition - would sure look nice on a wall.

School hardly gives me a life anymore  still, I've managed to get enough time to do some work. I spent the majority of my efforts on the foreground, adding more variety in the plants and stones. I like where it's going, but it needs a ton more AA to get rid of the raggedness.
