Excellent work!! The atmospheric perspective is really working. There is a great sense of depth, and the overall color scheme is really nice. Very inspiring piece Aaron! +5

This was about 2 weeks of work, on and off; maybe 40 hours? I did an initial painting and then showed it to some friends "in the business", and their directions really helped encourage me to bring it to completion.

I see all your pics and your site, and I think that you must be an "elite artist".Your use of colors and light are very solid.
Here is my +5

I just finished reading below the root for the second time and was an avid player of the old commodore game. It is an excellent dipiction. I wish The Greensky Trilogy was more widely enjoyed for it is a wonderful fantasy creation.
