Flojoa_2 terrain at 2049 Eon-Print Size resource by `hameed Over 6 hours rendering, original size at 3250 x 2050 Texture overlay used for the beach sand All edits done in PS CS3 ---------------------------------------- I really apologise that my uploads seem few and far between. My interest in devantART seems to be waning slightly. Anyway, here's a new wallpaper for you to enjoy. Might be susceptible to further edits. ---------------------------------------- *Edit* 29th May, 2009 Changed the shoreline - should look slightly better now and the water shouldn't look like it's "floating" or that's the hope at least. Over 11 hours of rendering now involved. Click to download 1440x900 wallpaper. Apologies for the rather large file size. Daily DeviationGiven 2009-06-27Tropic of Cancer by =Ladyofspira Comments
  Probably on eof your most realistic scenes in a while
 much of which is passed off to the amazingly natural distribution of waves in the sea and the realism of the beach sand  the planet is blended in nicely too  -- Why is delivering things by car called "shipment" while delivering things by ship called "cargo"? Tell *priteeboy today to get your Free emoticon stress balls      Hey, you did a really great scene here, very realistic and I really love the moon mystically in the sky. Very beautiful, the beach sand looks really nice, although it looks really dry where the waves may have washed over.
  very nice missus! Don't let the lack of interest in DA take you away like it did to me

-- "When life gives you lemons, make orange juice and leave the world wondering how the hell you did it"  The sea line is leaving a shadow on the beach, which is annoying, and false.
Else, nice work. -- Strength and honor. \_ O _/  I have to agree that there are some flaws, but first off, it's TG 0.9, and second, I find this to be one of your better pieces.
The sun being right near the planet is something I haven't seen from you before, very daring, but very cool. The other thing I noticed is the water, absolutely stunning and great reflection from the sun. I do like the sand as well and I wonder if the darker sand layer were raised just slightly higher if it would clean up that hovering water look. The island silhouette is weird, since it doesn't really have any features and seems kind of flat, but I think you need something there and that just a flat ocean going into the horizon wouldn't work here. Cool image though, I do like it a lot! -- =Apophysis Fractals: [link] || Photography & 3D Art: [link] Member of *Tubaholics-Anonymous  Great view, very realistic!

The only thing i have noticed is that considering the position of the light source the planet should be darker as it hides from it.
Just think of the light source, the planet and the viewer and their real position in 3D. Is like with the moon during a solar eclipse, you can see a really shiny ring and the rest shadow.
Everything looks amazingly real, so all my respects to you and your hard work! I think you have the patience of a saint!
Hope you can see my point and don't take it personally.
Great work
Cheers
However there are things I need to critique. Wispy clouds always look great on sunsets you don't need any more detail. But island looks too much simple even for a silhouette. When you move your eyes to the water you'll be impressed by the detail and realism of it. Especially the reflection of the sun is the most realistic one I've seen for a long time. You may noticed the spreading of the light from the center to the outside of the reflection area just like in the real world.
When it comes to shore line it loses all the realism because currently water looks like it's hovering over the shore. It would be great if it looks like it's moving back with the tide and leaving wet sand behind.
Other than it's always a great pleasure to see new works from you and looking forward for more.
