Matte Painting Development


Updated version with grid and plans to make the piece stronger. Universal color that will go through out the image to unify the entire piece. The universal color will slightly appear throughout the sky and plant life.
WIP for color. Unsure about the sky, but I do want to keep it feeling dream like.




The sacred mountains of Armir are floating islands of rich jungle vegetation, inhabited by Nomadic tribes. These mountains were once one giant floating island that broke off and drifted away as time progressed. The atmosphere is heavily damp and musky within the jungle, yet light and breezy around the edges of the floating islands. These islands are connected by many bridges. The culture of each Nomadic tribe differentiates among each floating island.
