For this weeks challenge. :)

[EDIT] I've added a dithered graidient to the sky, skulls and bones at the base of the tree, mist below the tree line and a few spiked poles in the field. :)

[EDIT] The dithered graidient of the sky has been removed and I've improved the tree line. :)

[EDIT] I've tweaked the tree texture a little and added a few more twigs to the branches.

Heres how it looked like before the edits i.imgur.com/2o7Rd.png

It was an uninspired piece, that i wasn't happy with, and i stopped because i was getting frustated and bored. I was going to finish it because i didn't want to give up, but i would have been more annoyed when comparing it to a wonder such as this.

It looked great before and it keeps getting better...amazing, love that misty/foggy feeling.

Impressive entry! That mist, man, that mist 0.o

Maybe the tree is over-aa-ed, branches should look crisp against the sky.

 

@ Connor: that's the worst reason for not entering a challenge. Time spent drawing is never wasted. You've got a whole day yet, just do it!

 I'm glad i didn't finished my entry for this week and just gave up, would never have even come close to this, and i would feel even worse for the wasted time. lol

Ahhh.  Pixel mist.  You really pulled that off well.  In fact, I don't think I've seen it done any better.

I really love the edits you made :) Although it was perfectly fine as it was before, the edits really do add more to the creepyness. Really awesome grass, btw!

Great work, I love every single element in this piece. So gothic and moody :)

Based on the undithered sky in the preview I agree.. Looks cleaner.

This is a great piece of art though!


user

 Undithered sky was much better. :(


user

 I think the gradient in the sky really harms the piece.

 Damn good man   

I like the sense of depth the textures on the ground give.

Thanks for the feedback everyone! :D

@ baah: Thanks for suggesting adding the fog it looks a lot better for it. :)

 Love the colors.


user
baah (Level 2 Flatfoot) at 12/29/2011 1:04:20 PM

Very nice one, with a well rendered scary ambiance!

Maybe the background could contain some fog, ie background tree not only in flat shadings... It would be even more frightening with a hooded skeleton. But it already is VERY GOOD!
