Description Hey! Here's the final, rendered-up version of that forest sketch. The first part of the tutorial / walkthrough is up HERE , and it's FREE. Parts 2 and 3 will follow, and they will also be free to watch. Paying site members can download the .PSD and brush files I used to follow along. So there we go!

What you see here is a tiny bit beyond what the tutorial covers. I added a details and otherwise touched it up for a bit after recording ended, but the process is the same as what I go over in the video, and by the time you watch the whole thing, you should have a good understanding of how I ended up with this image. Remember, the first third of the painting process is the most important part! The rest is just elaboration.

EDIT: added in dem birds and darkened the water for some better focus.

This is beautiful! <3 I can only hope I'll be able to paint such gorgeous landscapes someday! :'D

Saw this through the DD and had to make sure my praise went to the right page! Your gallery is fantastic, and definitely worth a watch. Look forward to seeing more of your work!

Ahh, no problem! c: I'm glad I found you! Seems like it would've been more appropriate for the Daily Deviation to go to the page of the original artwork if you ask me. :/
Can't wait to see it! :'D

I am a happy boy.

Ahh, that's awesome! I'm glad to hear they fixed it! That was a pretty big mistake on their part! But it's nice to see it resolved. I read your journal just now, and it's quite a shame that yours won't be getting the publicity, but at least the award belongs to the right person now!

Thanks! I considered actually turning them into real houses, windows and structures, but it felt like it was detracting from the overall impact. Glad you like them the way they are!
