Description I decided to do something with it when I first saw the Create Your Own Waterfall Tutorial by `miskis ([link] ) I did my first waterfall and I was really content with it. I didn't want to just throw somewhere as a study. So I looked up a nice model to merge with the waterfall just like that. I found the beautiful stock I was looking for in *mjranum-stock 's gallery. So I merged them and looked for some cliff stocks to merge it in. I found the nearly exact same one I was looking for in ~The-strawberry-tree I worked on it a lot but when I just couldn't make it I left it. Long long time later (yesterday) I wanted to try again. I tried, tried and tried and finally I got the look I wanted. It was easier since I had more experience now. Luckily, I found a beautiful background fast which goes really good with the image I had in my mind. After some alters I finally got this. I'm really happy with it. The atmosphere of it is weird. I didn't want the look I had in my last manipulations. Too natury (whaa ). This one's atmosphere just makes me trance.

I think of it as a part of an alternative world so there comes the title...

In the end: The inspiration was all from the resources I guess! So thanks so much to all of their owners! I really hope you like it.

ya know, I was wondering where all your responses went. Then I started to wonder when the last thing you poasted was. I searched back through my deviations and found this one. Very nice. I think this is definately one of your best Good job. I thought of the Alternative Life, you know? Maybe like the choices you make. You onle have so many choices you can take, one is the plunge down the waterfall, one the climb down the rocks, and one the safety of the high ground. Very nice.

Thank you! I think this is my best so far too. It's nice to feel evolving. I hope to finish that High Priestess soon. It has lots of elements in it so I don't think it will be as nice as Alternative because it's more difficult. But I have to start doing more difficult things in the end, right? I'll get better at it too, I hope.

Also, the alternative life you have mentioned, don't forget to count the things you have no control in! It may be depressing in some points of views but I think it's really important. If the '99 earthquake hadn't happened, I can't imagine where I'd be today. It started a big chain of events for me. (Thankfully in a good way because I can imagine how many people were effected by it in a bad way.) That chain of events made me be here. It's weird when you think about it.

Nicely done! Thank you very much for sharing! I like the concept alot and I love the brush work you did on the waterfall too, creative and unique.
If I may add one crit.. you might try changing the opacity a little here and there.. water is mostly see through, so seeing bits of stuff behind it might add some depth, if that makes sense.
