Enigmatic piece that evokes the necessary awe & befuddlement! Great piece.What music did you use?

This is awesome. The only thing is, you can tell at the end that the shadows in the water don't match the scene. They stretch to far down from the dock area. Small detail. I like it though.

Its because the sun is rising from behind the castle making it look dark from a frontal view, also i think the castle and tree look fine.

[SniperZero]

Very nice, whats creepy is i did something similar like this but on canvas with real paint o.O

[Saphiras]

oh god, why i can't do that?
but it is very noticeable that you used a brush for the trees.. they are all equals!
hahahaha but i repeat, really great job!

[JakeMaciejewski]

oh ok I guess your right in some ways i still think that the final image was amazing though

[xadam]

JUST MY OPINION; NO HATE!: i dont get how the suns rising and the castle is all dark, should have some light! and judging by the size of the tree next to the castle, the castle should be a bit bigger

[xadam]

i never said it didnt look good im just saying he should of made it look more realistic in what i was talking about

[JakeMaciejewski]

i thought it was amazing fucking look at the final you can't say it's not good
