Concept Art for upcoming capstone game pitch.

Very Busy, but moody piece with some strong curves.

roughly 10 hours in photoshop. Inspired by Erick Pangilinan and Robh Ruppel's art direction guide for Uncharted 2

Overall it looks great. Good contrast in value. Interesting, flowing composition. The lighting in the center of the piece really makes the foliage seem to recede into the background and look back-lit. My only qualm would be with the upper right corner; it feels a bit fuzzy. Or maybe too easy. You do a good job of keeping the style sketchy, but still creating the illusion of 3D space on a 2D plane, except for that one area where I can see that you changed the opacity of the eraser and took some of the trees away or something like that. Maintain the illusion throughout.

It's not really a big deal, you're just making it difficult to give you feedback that isn't simply "I like it!"

Thanks Tim. I don't truly understand the last sentence, but I agree in general with your critique, I tried to do a layering style and the result ended up cropping / hiding details in that segment of the painting resulting in it looking out of place a bit which is a little disappointing to me. Appreciate the feedback.

It is a game concept - there are a few people who asked if I could help make some concept paintings to sell their idea to the faculty and students so it can be made.
