I wanted to try something with 4 colors, but I ended up only using 3. I went with different shades of the same color, basically, and this is what I came up with: (regular top-left, 2x zoom on bottom)  It's supposed to look as though there is ground right in front (bottom) with lava illuminating the rocky bits, and then a sea of lava behind that, and then a dark, mountainous area with flames (spewing smoke). Now clearly if I have to describe the piece, I've screwed up royally. What I'd like to know, is what I could do to make this piece look better. So constructive C&C, everyone! PS: I realize this concept has probably been done to death. My apologies in advance. |

Oh wow, that's almost exactly what I originally had in mind!  Yours has more believable depth, the dithering is less linear, and the lava looks more like... Well... Lava. I like it! Anyone else have an opinion or perhaps a different take on it? |
