Description This started off as a doodle, and slowly, painfully evolved into the current scene. I'm not sure if it's really 'science fiction' but that's the best I could do. After I finished it, I got the impression that my mind was subconsciously going on about the bombing in the deserts of Afghanistan.

Evokes images of Tusken Raiders for me. Very expressive. These people are the last on a dying planet.

Excellent work. ::fav::

Nicely done. Reminds me of the movie "Dark Crystal" to a certain extent, even though they weren't people on the trek. Same feelings. Keep up the good work.

I think this is great. The figures represent the 4 horsemen of the apocalypse ? The light reminds me of Turner's paintings.
Very nice

Thanks! Now that you mention it, I'm reminded of Dune as well. Good call.

Parasight, cool perspective, I'd love to have the chance to compare the mountains of Lebanon to this some day.

Nice! Very sweet colors.

I remember standing on top of a mountain in Lebanon and I was at just about the same height as the clouds. This really reminds me of that.

Nothing I would change except maybe make the dark left shadow on the second guy a bit lighter.

Yet another great piece you've created.

If that started off as a doodle I can't imagine what something you really put your mind to must be like
I love the picture. The colours and the sun and the figures all seem perfectly placed. Well done. I'd love to have a large copy of the orginial in a frame on my wall it's that good.

That's mystical. Only reason they don't award you DD for this is that they'd have to do it for all your other submissions too! These are all just pure beauty. EXCELLENT job. Do NOT stop!

WOW
i think i like the most of what ive seen of you. I like this better than the DD. Even though the DD is more complex. Mostly because I love everything which is mystical and dark etc etc
Great job again!

mm, very atmospheric ! the composition is rather par for the genre, but as such it is always effective; sky is beautifully done, the lighting on the cloak .. !

in terms of color usage & brush strokes, this reminds me of some of boris vallejo's stuff ;D so i guess yeah, you could certainly classify it as sci-fi

good job R& keep on it ;D

It resembles something out of Dune, but now that you mention it, it does have the feel of what's happening in Afghanistan right now.

Regardless, nice brooding reds and the cloaked figures are pretty menacing.

Wow. That is very impressive. I love the cloaked figures, and the color of the sky is perfect.
