Description Inspired by dimmu borgir (thanks ` exorist ) and the improved version of my previous deviation, this is the second phase... and probably the final - il just make some variations on it. I'm finally happy with something i've made, this looks decidedly forlorn and doomed, i'v almost got the texturising right, except for a bit of grassing, the water didn't come off badly, and the colours are working for me. This is the best piece i've done in terragen ever.

FULL VIEW IS A MUST FOR ONCE!

Original picture :: [link]
Tools :: Terragen solely
Render time :: somewhere between 30-45mins
Time to create :: On and off... about 1 n a half hours

wheeeee! my favorite type of lighting! ^^ water looks great.. geez, wish I could get it that well. ^_^;;;; doesn't really look apocalyptic to me either.. unless you think a rainstorm's apocalyptic.. but still, it's nice. ^^

I'm not sure apocalyptic this is, but it's definitely beautiful. I was going to say, "wow, isn't wales pretty, nice work with the camera" until i realized that you'd made it... wow. I highly admire you computer types.

*blushes*

Er.... Oops?

This just shows how good it is, if my sleep deprived brain thought it was photography, it *must* be good!

You've got some nice work in your gallery, this being one of them. Nice colours for sure and a good layout. Try starting with the gamma at 1.2 and shadow lightness at 9 before you start all your adjustments, you'll find your images are vastly improved.

I expected something more doomful too, but this one has something different, like a silent doomful feeling. Mmm, beware the doom is near kinda feeling.
I like your mountains just too much!

Not exactly what I expected from the title, but really good nonetheless. Very realistic, especially the outer clouds... Great pic!
