Nature Meets Modern World Large Piece~DR809

So I guess I can say I'm trying to expand my work onto different fields and this is pretty simple just placing grass, plants and making the dirt road. What do you guys think for a what I consider my first large piece?

Pretty interesting, you say you placed the dirt and grass yourself? If so, it's well done can barely tell. Though the dirt road looks like asphalt painted brown. Give it more texture.

Thanks. I did read up on several tutorials every now and then so I guess that helped lol. Yeah it pretty much is painted brown I couldnt really find any nice textures for it.

Just do a little smudging, gets some ground textures, etc.

Hmm thanks man.
I was thinking on adding someone leaning on the wall or something I'm not to sure though.

It's fine how it is, just the ground. The simplicity is what's good about it.

nice bro good colors on this kiu

you know as a fellow lp artist, i like the placements and the concepts, as opposed to furbz i wont mind a lack of texture in this one. But the biggest problem here is lighting. I see 3 different lights here, so i know there are 3 different images. When you are using stock images you need to make sure all of the lights is one directional (the other cases might be where you have light posts and sky etc, this law might not apply), otherwise everything looks weird. Decide on a single light here since its day time. KIU and welcome to the large arts club :)

i agree with kidbuu, the lighting needs a bit more work, and needs slight more blending, but i like the concept, this is well put together, just finish it ;)


...get rid of the text too...

1- it looks pretty good, nice blending
2- what stock did you use and is it royalty free? if not start using them.
3- start working on larger canvases.

Looks good tbh, im thinking of doing this kinda stuff to.
great job man :)

I do not necessary agree with buu here, i really cant find 3 light sources?, i see 2 the light coming down on the road and the building next to it, and the other light is that the grass is all shined upon, even the grass behind the wall, what you need to do is darken the grass behind the wall in front of us and also darken the wall a tad, there would be shadow there if the light follows the pattern it does on the road and the building. Not a bad start though :)

Thanks for the cnc guys. Yeah i didnt take into consideration of the lighting behind the wall when i was placing the grass there. and i used two stock images. I want to do more advanced stuff. And what are royalty stock images???

just a free stock site i use shutterstock.com and sxc.hu

so stop googling/ ripping stocks :p

hahaha :X

Really like this did you cut it all??

nope it was just a city stock and a nature stock and put them together and voila

Congrats on a beautiful piece!

i really love this non the less tho mate GJ KIU
