Temple of the Ancient Sun Revamp!

[~Void~]

This is a remake of an old terrain of mine, Temple of the Ancient Sun (the one I made for the challenge vs. belgarath). I just figured I would revisit that one because the concept for it was so epic but the result in the old version wasn't really what I wanted it to be. So here goes:

 

[Naze]

Cool, but I have nothing else to say.

It's good but not great. Not sure why though, everything seems perfect pretty much. Maybe a bit too much yellow? The lighting matches the terrain so much it may in fact hurt it? I don't know though.

 

[Just_Spectating]

its good but makes me Yawn..

 

[Naze]

Your terrain brings strange feelings to us...

 

[~Void~]

I tried to make it less yellow by adding some teal near the waterfalls.

 

[Naze]

Yes...

I didn't noticed that.

 

[~Void~]

That's not good now is it? People often overlook important details on my terrains.

 

[Just_Spectating]

i'll just say, theres not much to look at.

 

[~Void~]

Really? I wouldn't say that.

 

[Just_Spectating]

well do you want other peoples criticism or deny it.

 

[Dia3olus]

i think the building at the background shouldnt be as fogged as it is. Maybe try to show it a little more.

 

[Celaquil]

Good consept, but I can easily see what makes ME think it is not perfect. The fog you made just suddenly stops where the bridge starts, making it look unfinished at that spot.

 

[Naze]

That's not good now is it? People often overlook important details on my terrains.

No, it was good before.

What happened is that I just didn't had anything to say.

And I still don't have...

Good consept, but I can easily see what makes ME think it is not perfect. The fog you made just suddenly stops where the bridge starts, making it look unfinished at that spot.

Haha, I knew someone would point that out. It's because the bridge is curved. There's a short distance between where the fog is there and where it isn't. Not really much I can do to fix it.

 

[Gilles]

Try multiple small glows?

 

[Hawkwing]

I don't like the fog coming from the waterfalls. I don't want you to remove it, I just think the placement is off.

 

[~Void~]

I tried to not make it look even, if that's what you mean.

 

[Hawkwing]

No, I don't think it should be even of anything. I think it's a bit big and too far over.

Hello,
the othere said they think its not great but they dont know why ^^
some one said also... there is to much yellow.
Ok there i would have to say, first you have a bright tempel in the background with that sky and the light there is nearly no contrast ( or not enough ).
for exampel you dont see the waterfalls in the first second, you have to look much in the detail to see them.
then you have that big trees right and left which are close to the camera so they take much part of the picture and we can see in all detail there particles.
Maybe try out just a bit othere camera angel and for exampel the same picture in the night with some light sources, for exampel some flares or some kind of fire .... just an idea... but nice work
