Description

Hi there,
I have spent lastly some few hours on matte paints. Really enjoable stuff I think.
The picture beside the source I used is painted in PS 100% from the skratch. This is my first matte paint I ever did, so it could really look lot lot better.
You can find the source pic under this link :

I have to thanks dylan cole, john liberto and rafal wojtunik for great advices they gave me while painting process. Those where priceless.

This is simply beautiful. The detail is amazing. I love the sky that you have created... the atmospheric perspective works really well in this... IE the mountains in the background really seem like they are far off in contrast with the beach at the foreground. Excellent job!

wow!!! thats quite something! to answer your question darkxshin, matte painting is when you take various photographical references and combine then using various methods to make them look at though they are one new pic. well thats atleast what i think it is.

was wondering why I missed this until I saw that it has been posted before I joined gfx.

Beautiful - it reminds me of Riven and specially the sandparts close to the viewer look very photorealistic.
