Thanks for the fav.

King,
Dude, I had totally forgotten that you were the Sava fan I had seen from a while back! The updated 'Field and Roadside' looks good! I dig the contrasts, as the colors seem very much brighter now!

I currently can't remember that Sava thing, could you give me a hint on that?

With the picture: I guess you painted it and then took a picture of it. This ususally give the image all the disadvantages of a camera and too much dependence on the lighting. So adding some postwork to photographs can be almost considered mandatory, but that's just my opinion.

Just to give you a recommendation (and a friend of mine some attetion), would you mind to look at some works by ~picolosaber?

Greetings to you,
Gunnar

Dude, I have to check out your songs. I saw your comment on someone's Savatage 'Dead Winter Dead' wallpaper, and just had to write to you. That album is a perfect capturing of the sadness and destruction of the 90's war in that region!!

You're very welcome! :)
I'm sorry for not leaving a comment when I favorited it... I hate it when people favorite and run like that. Oops! In any case, I'm an idiot, and your stuff is among the best Terragen images I've ever seen, and I hope you keep up the good work!
:iconkingfossil:
Thanks, but I always think there are many way better Terragen images out there.
