Taken a bit longer then i expected but i quite like it. I'm gonna desaturate it a fair bit, choose a pose for the people ( which one should i use ? ) , and finish the water, maybe add some thin , dark, wirey clouds on the horizon.
Chivalry *woo you get a mention in my topic!* : The bottom half is in a speedpaintey style.. so you know what that looks like... :)
Erm.. yeah this is about half size. The sky is around 30 layers. bBuild it up and build it up... grr... tedious. Tedious i tell the...
EDIT: ----------------------------
Another hour or so of work... I don't know whether to do clouds? Probably not now. I quite like it. I could make the waves better, i could make the people better. I could make it brighter. I could make the water look better. But... that'd take a lot longer, and i don't want to do all the extra tiny tiny details/ I mean no one cares that much anyways :p
That many layers for a speed paint? :) Just use one, any mistakes can be brushed over. Gud colour, although put more solid shapes into it. It's hard to tell where the sky ends and the water begins, aside from the ripples.

Very nice, dale! I like this one alot.
The sea needs to be bit more "watery" imo, but still good paint skills. ;)
Good stuff!

I think the angle makes it look a little flat. Maybe if it was like in your first sketch. Also, the colors seem a little too much, like the orange and yellow covers everything. Try some cold colors too, to make the color scheme more interesting.
Anyways, good job, but I think it can be better. Keep it up yo!
