Artist's Comments

This was originally created for use in a team contest, but it had to be removed...
I was sent the small terrain and a snow surface...I increased the terrain to 1025 x 1025 and added quite a few more layers of snow and a blend of rock textures.
I then added the atmosphere and a hot-air ballon shaped bird.
I had some problems with scaling ...maybe some lack of depth, but the terrain was fairly small...so I think that was the main challenge.
Thank you for viewing!

awsome rock textures! I think that the Balloon could be a little bit small :P

What a treat- two for the price of one! The atmosphere and surface are superb. Love that snow- perfect texture. The terrain is beautiful, as is the POV. I like the concept and title..and the ballon is nicely integrated. Wonderful work!

Beautiful sight! I think The shot should be closer, thought. The light is great and it keeps a well represented snowy ground.
