Description
Hi there!... a moody desert scape, low light situation.
Done from scratch with Photoshop CS2 and CS
(CS2 crashed and I had to switch back to CS .. damn CS2 .. o_O).
I used a photograph for the moon
Thanks for watching,
Daniel

Nice picture!
I would like to ask, if you would give me a permission of using this picture in a fan made expansion to Dune card game?
If you do, what artist name do you prefer to use?

Wow...incredible job, I can't get over the amount of detail. Was this painting inspired by Frank Herbert's books by any chance? That's what I thought of the minute I saw it, the city is exactly what I envision Arakeen would look like.

Nice and all, amazing that comes from scratch however...If this is based on Dune the book and not the series up to date, there should be no trees. Dune has no trees like that or any vegitation in that large of a quanity otherwise it looks ok. Flyers would give it a more Dune-ish feel because Arrakis City is a space port...

One or two parts don't seem to gel completely, however otherwise this is once again a very nice piece of work.

Your environments are always so beautiful. I especially like this one though. Something about desertscapes just really appeals to me. Plus the fact that Dune is one of my favorite novels... heh, that doesn't hurt. Love the little footsteps. That was a nice touch.

Maybe some shadows from those travelling objects? Looks beautiful otherwise.

Can't really find anything that needs improvement. This looks very well thought out, even down to having the bushes grown in the shady parts of the dunes.

Cool landscape, the terrain looks great! 
Only two comments about tiny details; I think the perspective of the foot traces is too steep compared with the FOV of the rest scene (they look like they're getting smaller gradually), and second, desert areas have a very dry environment, and the atmosprere is much more clear at long distances (I've been in Egypt

Thanks for your comment! Helpful indeed!
About the atmospheric haze, I think I've overdone it a bit.

Hahaha... you can create photorealism seemingly effortlessly, and then you use a photo for the moon...
Hahaha... Awesome work, man!

Great picture...associations with the "Alchemist" of Paulo Coelho...

Love the look of this one, if it were a little larger in the height it'd make a hell of a wallpaper. And it really does look like a scene from the Dune books.
