December moodboard challenge

Hello everyone!!

So sorry for the delay. This last few weeks have been crazy for me and here I am at 10th of deccember writing this topic. Thank you to lovely @freyalupen and @Iruhas who have been participating. I hope you find inspiring this last moodboard:

This challenge born more than a year ago when I decided to do something for all month of the year and I’m happy I was able to post them all. In the few next days I’ll tought about keep doing this challenge or upgrade the idea becuase I love so much creat new worlds so I wanted to share a new kind of challenge but it can be in another format.

Thank you so much to all the lovely people who have been around this challenge and be interested. Love you all :white_heart: :star2:

My entry for the December moodboard challenge,
done in 70 minutes. One of the things that made this feel fast was that I used FizzyFlower's "ESSENTIAL" Brushset VERSION 2 ⭐ with 400+ Brushes ((Cloud, Paint, Hair, Fur, FX, Foilage, Trees, Leaves, Texture, Smudge, and more!)
and I love it. :kiki_love:

When I was looking and thinking about this month’s moodboard, I was originally going to create an environment that focused on plants but I was hesitant because plants from the mountains and from the coast are very different. And I ended up using a lot of stone textures from a brush bundle that I had never used before.

@Iruhas Thank you so much for your entry :star2: so cool the scenario! So happy that you have enjoy the whole year challenge :blush:

@MangooSalade Thank you for your entry!! The warm colour palette give a calm feeling while the object at the left and right down corner give a mistery feeling. I love it :white_heart:

So cool to see that both are done with the same mood board but give an absolutely different vibe. Thank you, thank you.

Happy new year!!

I might as well post my rough sketch before I forget about it- a strange landscape with a beach, a giant ring in the ground, and hills sticking out of the ground with no bottom (I can’t think of a good way to describe it), with crystals growing out of the landscape. It was somewhat inspired by memories of the game Xenoblade X’s landscapes as well (Primordia and Oblivia specifically).

When I started doing these, I guess I was intrigued by the possibility of creating new ideas, new worlds, from it. And while I felt like I didn’t accomplish much there, looking back there does seem to be a lot of potential in what I did. So, thanks, @Sioni, for inspiring me and others (who have much prettier renderings of their ideas :slight_smile: ) throughout the year.

Thank you @Sioni for putting the challenge together, I really enjoyed doing it. I think that trying to employ the different elements ends up making the work more creative. I would not have thought of this scene without the various prompts.

Thank you, @Sioni. These are always fun to do. I managed to slide this in just before midnight on the last day of December.

@freyalupen OMG this have so much potential!! I can perfectly see it and it could be so cool to see a final render of the scene. Love the idea con the hills sticking out with no bottom because I’m an absolutely fan of flying lands hahahaha Thank you so much for your kind words. It means a lot for me :white_heart:
