Waterfall

[Adrian]

A waterfall I drew to practice perspective/water/cliffs/art hehhh.. I'm sure the water could look better but I don't know what more to do with it. The grass doesn't fade out like it should right. Any suggestions?

My 2 crits:

Grass:
It's not too convincing as grass to me, that may be because you wouldn't often find a waterfall like that, with the grass coming up to the edge of the water as well as the edge of the cliff.
*shrug*

Water:
Not too much I can say about the water, it looks nice, but it could use a little splash to it.
Edit: use alot more white or lighter blue where the water is actually falling, that should greatly improve the look of it.

Just a quick paint over, to show some things that would make it looks a tad more realistic

[Snippa]

quick edit to show what I was talking about with the water... could be better but this is the basic idea:


pulled the grass back a bit... but didn't mess with it much other than that, so pretty much the main focus in my edit is the water.
progFX did a decent edit of the terrain, giving the look of the river a more real feel... shouldn't be completely straight like you have it currently.

your vanishing point needs to be lower

[Rox]

I was actually thinking the opposite. If the vanishing point was a bit higher, it'd look sorta like a helicopter shot, what with the waterfall already thinning out on the bottom and all.

Yea, the vanishing point needs to be higher, and have the horizontal break a bit higher too. The perspective is to sharp/steep? thats the only way o can explain it. Nicer colors would be cool, but it dosent have to be done.
