PERFECT!!!

great composition, cool sky and colors

Very nice work!

It's wonderful !

all i can say is
its flawless :0

really great details,you make a good realistic mountain and sky top score

by the way guys, this is a matte painting, meaning a lot of it is photos. For example the sky and the mountains are at least for the detailed parts photos.

To get off some crits, I really like the sky and mountains. Looks dramatic and effective. However your light isn't working too cohesively in the image. Even in photography your foreground elements wouldn't go black like that, you'd get a lot more subtle light in the foreground. So look at exposures in good photography and matte painting, and remember that a matte painter is always trying to create better than just photography.. look at exposures in here for example, image by Evan Shipard: http://www.ecsdesignvfx.com/gnomon/evanShipard_Tunnel_.jpg

But anyway nice concept, at parts really nice execution as well, just pay more attention to light and exposure.

2 All: Thank you for your commentary.
