Description

Hi guys, here's my latest attempt t painting a polished environment piece. This one is meant to convey a cold, eerie atmosphere with a slight mystical presense. The story
behind this is the adventurer has discovered an ruined monastery that hides an ancient forgotten druid tomb. The massive metal cross has been placed to ward off any evil that might escape it.

Thanks everyone!

kittyKat - I appreciate the tip, what I really meant was 'first view critique' - the first person to view the picture gave a comment. I've never seen that happen before and had to note it ;-)

Awesome! Great atmosphere and I think the cross "breaks out" very nicely, due to its colortone, from the enviroment. Well done.
(thanks for the walktrough, very nice)

great environment. Those sweirls are nice, they remind me a bit of the place where those Mystics live in The Dark Crystal.

Dreamtheater, Ikaa - thank you very much! My previous tutorials have confused a lot of people. I'm real happy to know this case is different this time!

Juro, BillCorbett, cupcake, edro, sifferet - Cheers! I'm glad you like it.

Andy_Jones - Those swirls are based on the ones found carved into Dolmen tombs in Ireland. The Mystics houses and clothing were probably inspired by Celtic designs. Now I want to see the film again!

kittyKat - Thanks for adding the link to your tutorial page, btw

starqueen - Haha, thanks but this isn't at that level yet. Maybe one day when I get a LOT of free time, I can refine it to that quality ;-)
