CGAA Speed Paint Challenge - 'The Ice Castle of the Yeti-King'*

The Yeti's were a technologically advanced race, their palaces overlooked the Himalayan passes at great altitude. An insular race they realised that Earth was to be the domain of man and departed for the stars around 2000 BC.

CGAA Speed Paint Challenge - "Walking in a Winter Wonderland"

My interpretation of a winter wonderland, lots of snow ragged peaks and a howling gale going for more John Martin sublime rather than seasonal cheer.

Elrond's Waterfalls

Using the brush I created a few days back I thought I would go back with a set idea in mind, I wanted to create an alternative take on Rivendell, often it is depicted as a over elaborate tree house, where as I perceive it as a shimmering tower situated in a verdant realm that has been lovingly crafted by the generations of elves living there. Think Capability Brown on steroids.
