In case you missed it over on tumblr, this is a quick illustration I did to test out some new brushes I got for Photoshop. It's based on a photo I took while I was traveling in Scotland.
The colors are probably still very very much over saturated, but like I said, it's just a test. I don't experiment much with brushes, so this was a rather new experience for me.
I just spent the last two weeks in Scotland for a family vacation/birthday-graduation present for me/birthday present for my dad. It was absolutely gorgeous. I think you did a pretty good job at capturing just a small percent of the country's beauty; however, it is most certainly something that people need to experience firsthand.
I saw the circle of trees in the first Land Before Time before the stamped of long necks came and ate it all before Little Foot and the others could even get over it's beauty.
