Description

Well I finally managed to end this! :la: It took me like 3 weeks to end this because of exams ¬¬ But now that I'm finally FREE I've been able to submit it hehe. This is an entry for neywa.deviantart.com/journal/D… :iconthe-imaginarium:'s contest - Door to a New World. So I wanted to come up with a.... "better" idea but the process was kinda....normal?? I mean I was looking for a good idea which wouldn't be a simple gate to a fantastic world but I felt like drawing what I suddenly imagined. And, hands down, it's the first time I follow what I draw. And the first time that I've attempted to DRAW scenery, and then make a scenery manipulation. It started like **** and the day I started I felt like losing my time that I should have been using in my studies but then after a day I returned and kept on working on it when suddenly it started to make sense. Then I had it saved for 2 weeks and finished today :D

I'm actually pretty happy with the result even though now I see some mistakes. I used my little concept art knowledge and it's shown to be quite useful. Now working on this has been a real pain because I wanted to make it REAL big and it took like 5 minutes to open, 5 minutes to save and endless wait to apply filters, transformations,etc. Plus countless photoshop crashes and computer freezes xD
The original was 8000 x 4500 px I had to reduced it 50% and then save it because the virtual memory was dying.

Wish me luck with the contest and I hope you like it !!

*Note that you might not see some of the stocks I listed, or at least they're not very visible in the work. That is because here I listed some of the stocks that I used till the very start and the work has changed a lot so that some of them may be hidden but still they were part of the creation and I want to credit them ^^
