Description

This one started as just a little experimenting with Land-mats....the POV was chosen to give me an idea of how the Land-mats would look at all distances (close up...Right of image, mid distance...left, and distant...center of image). To turn a "test render" into a finished image I simply added Water,an Atmos and a couple of Para-bombs for the Castle/Keep....The Castles are basically spires with large mat displacements that I then postworked by zooming up to approx 400% and pushing a few pixels around to get the desired effect. Postwork in Photoshop. TFV.

Damn Jeff, wicked MoJo man, fantastic work. Just the inspiration I needed, think it's time to take a break from Mixed Medium and Fractals and take another crack at MoJo myself. Peace

Nice work jeff especially on the postwork. I feel it needs something more..possibly a character or 2 on the flat ridgeline on the right of the image as it looks like a long causeway leading to the buildings. Alternatively some variation in the mat texture for colour variation, however if the end result is as desired then its all good. The image does remind me a bit of Rodney Matthews artwork he did for a Magnum album cover called "foundation". See http://www.rodneymatthews.com/gfx/foundation.jpg ...perhaps this is why I also feel it should have something more :-)

I like this one. The foreground, background, and complementary colors schemes work well together.

Thanks for the feedback folks....much appreciated!. -Woz-.....Yeah, I agree a character or two would have worked well...and the mats will probably end up with more color variation...I'd like to make some weird model cart like the Plough in "Rod Matthews" image....If I could just suss out how to export my model from ZBrush with a reasonable .obj file size that does'nt cause MJW to crash out on me....anything I try to export seems to always end up in the hundreds of MB's.
