The Neck (Nøkken) - Scenic Terrain

[FeelsGoodMan]

I tried my hand on scenic terrains for the first time ever. The result turned out alright I guess, but I'm sure it could be improved.

Inspired by Norwegian painter Theodor Kittelsen.

Very atmospheric

Is it the same shot just with and without game view settings?

Hmm the bottom one is a painting by Theodor Kittelsen.

Ha-ha. FeelsGoodMan is a Chinese manufacturer.

Oh really? I was almost certain some of that grass in the corner of the bottom one was the ufergrass, but well oh well.

I actually haven't ever seen that one, thought I knew most paintings of Nøkken.

Anyway, your version reminds me a lot of another version of that painting, or rather another painting of Nøkken. It's quite, as Oliver said, atmospheric, and certainly very well done for being a first scenic terrain. I would try to go for a more colorful approach, like the reference painting, but it is quite nice as is.

May actually have been someone else who painted it, I'm not sure.

Thanks! Yeah I could try some different or more saturated colors.

Impressive details, very spooky too!
I'll be watching my back next time I go into a Norwegian forest
