Busy with a huge commission for someone on deviantart.. It's a lot of work, but also fun to do :mrgreen:

I use GIMP and a mouse.

Thank you all! The trees are already a pain to draw indeed xD
Here's a new WIP!

Your work is very beautiful and your drawing is excellent.

Beautiful. I love the way you did the sky. The mountains are perfect. I think you need to add some more dark strokes to the trees to make them stand out a bit better.

All in all I love it. Nice work!

A beautiful start BaukjeSpirit. I agree with O that the trees need more contrast but I'm looking forward to seeing this one unfold.

Thank you very much molly, Oregonian and Erisian!

I totally agree about the trees, also the perspective isn't right in my eyes, so I'll repaint them.

Incredible. I love the colors in the sky and how the other colors compliment the feel of a peaceful sunset.

So far so good! I think the sun could look a little more uniform it doesn't look like a perfect edge (unless you wanted that then it's fine) and I agree with the trees.

One thing totally unrelated to the art itself is the size of the images, if they could be somewhat smaller would be better as it loads very slow when they are huge. But most people have rocket ship internet so I don't think anybody else has a problem. xD

I agree, thumbnails are awesome. Aside from that though, I love the colors of the sky and the fluffy clouds. They look like cotton candy.

Very nice. You have got a lovely talent there.

BaukjeSpirit · **Posted:** Tue Apr 23, 2013 2:10 pm **(#14)**

Thank you so much everyone

Moko: I agree with the sun, already fixed it! And I have very slow internet myself so I know what you mean xD I'll resize the future WIPs

ek22: Wasn't sure about the clouds myself, it's also one of the first time that I paint them, but I'm glad you like them already!

You do a beautiful job on your blending.

Well done BaukjeSpirit; really like how you did the clouds for some reason. The setting sun Orange sky is awesome too.

Mokonafan · **Posted:** Wed Apr 24, 2013 6:01 pm **(#18)**

I also like the clouds, clouds are harder than they loo. ;D
Yay smaller images, I loaded so much faster, thank you. xD

I like the little pile of rocks, I assume the foreground grass/hill that it's on will be more defined, am I right? xd

Nice work so far!

The mountains look great!

It's looking really, really good.Great job!

I would be using a tree brush because i can't draw for crap with a mouse. :rofl
