Description

Mata Nui sights - Charred Forest

When you look at one path, 3 other paths look at you.

I originally wanted to make the "Po-Wahi" piece a panorama, but after that didn't happen (which I regret actually :7), I've been wanting to make one since. Then I figured this setting would work well, though i realized later doing a forest panorama kinda makes you hate the endless sea of trees :P

Creating a 360 dregree piece is tough due to the challenge of its scenes' coherence. you should look at one angle at the time while every angle should feel like they belong in the same place. This makes it hard to adjust things within one angle since the other angles probably will have to be adjusted as well or else things will look out of place.

This was a fascinating experiment... Ive never felt so caught in the world when i sat alone in my apartment at 1 am painting tree after tree while listening to the Gone Girl soundtrack to get in the mood. Making this was like experiencing my own horror movie while creating it and i loved it.

I like the mood you have here, it's really chilling! I feel like I've been transformed into my Toa-sona (which is a female Po-Toa who wear the Kanohi Rau or Great Mask of Translation BTW) and have become separated from my brothers by the Makuta. I'm alone in the Charred Forest and I'm on edge, my weapon of bow and arrows at the ready, waiting for Teridax to poke his head out so I can land a hit. Every sound and every movement sets me on high alert, fearing an ambush.
