Description
This is a piece I did for PsdTuts+ which I also wrote up for a "How To Paint A Realistic Landscape" tutorial that looks at the full process of sketching, detailing, texturing and final lighting effects!So stay tuned for an update on that!
Photoshop CS5
20+ hours (That includes writing all the steps down as I went!)
Airbrush + Texture brushes.
Dodge/Burn and Sharpen/Blur for finishing touches!
References from screencaps from the Trailer for "The Hobbit"

I often see some utter crap get selected for DailyDeviant and when I see something like this not getting that attention it just makes me wonder why they have DailyDeviants at all!
This is really nice, one day I'm going to have a try at this painting lark
