alexiuss In reply to Gulstab [2009-03-24 01:50:08 +0000 UTC]

yes,
Is awesome process:
1)travel 6000 miles to Siberian wasteland
2)take 4000 pictures over the course of 2 months, don't forget to bring along sexy models
3)select 10 best ones
4)sketch imagined scene, referencing from photos
5)integrate best photos into scenery with plentiful use of brushes and layers
