    Most of the time, I lobby for desaturation and increased contrast, but I think your palette on this one is gorgeous. I love the vibrant colors on the land. I do agree, though, that the water is overpowering and could probably be dialed back quite a bit. Even so, I'm rather glad you didn't come here first. Sometimes the groupthink sets in, and everything starts looking the same. Especially for the few months after Ascension posts a new tutorial!

    Thanks for the kind words, Midgardsormr! I like the look of it, but I am a bit biased, so it is always nice to hear that others like it too.

    Still working on adding text, but, I have a different update.

    Found a nice tutorial about making forests and I didn't really like the forest I had created, so I thought I'd give it a whirl.

    Here are two slightly different versions of my new forest:

    Thoughts? Which do you like better, the lighter or darker version?

    Any suggestions on improving it/making it mesh more?

    Also, yes, it is supposed to be red. It is a forest composed entirely of red trees.

    You can't really tell but I've dialed the ocean back a bit as well. I think it looks much better to thanks for everyone on that advice.
