Hah, this is quiet an old piece. Now I wouldn't paint it that way. My newest approach on forest landscapes can be found here: grrroch.deviantart.com/art/Enc…

The first one has a brighter and more fantasy-like atmosphere whilst the second has a dark and eerie atmoshpere. So while both have the same forest situation, both are very different in nature.

(That probably made no sense at all, but do you understand me? )

In my opinion, also, I would rather the before painting rather than the after painting as the after seems to have a bit too much detail that I lose myself a bit in it whereas the before painting allows me to take it all it.
Sorry...

But both are really great in shading and such, so good job!

This is fun to see because the pieces have such different atmosphere and density

I prefer the before painting BECAUSE it is less detailed.  the after is so detailed that you kinda get lost in it.

I am SO sorry to say this though  just want you to know that both look VERY good (much better than me).

But I actually think the same. ; ) Now I would draw it differently. Thank you for your opinion, I really appreciate honest people like you. Have a nice day! : )

I like them both as well. the style is really different so its hard to compare them. the first one looks calm and happy and the second one looks quite sinister. the second one is more detailed though and i can tell you got better

grrroch In reply to Hyenax [2014-03-17 09:39:44 +0000 UTC]

Thanks for your comment. After some time, I like more the first one. Good point out there.

Laugh-Butts [2014-01-14 01:36:32 +0000 UTC]

One looks realistic; one looks cartoony! It is more like you mastered another style! 8D WOW! I almost expect the right one to be used in a detailed Little red riding Hood booklet!

I know. : P Now I wouldn't draw it like that, I have a plan to redraw it again after almost 1,5 year. Thanks for commenting. ; )

The second one reminds me of the Lost Woods

Hmm, Lost Woods... Do you have in mind a specific place?

Oh no, I'm just a huuuuugggeee Legend of Zelda fan. If that's what you mean by specific place

grrroch In reply to dammittucker [2013-10-04 22:28:39 +0000 UTC]

Hah, just as I thought. I googled "Lost Woods" and there was a bunch of images related to Legend of Zelda.

amalisia [2013-08-11 17:54:51 +0000 UTC]

to be honest, I like the first one more the second one is really nice too but I think the original has more technique and it attracts me more

grrroch In reply to amalisia [2013-08-11 20:31:15 +0000 UTC]

To be honest, I think the same too. I know exactly what you mean. Now I wouldn't draw anything like in version two. Thanks for your opinion, Amalisia.

Rocketai [2012-09-29 17:53:41 +0000 UTC]

I like both of them! I just wouldn't really consider this a "redraw", you know, because the new one is quite different from the old one.
The old one looks like an oil painting and it's more clean, gives an emotion of peace and shows nature's beauty, while the new one is a little creepier, with the trees and the brush strokes. It gives you a feeling that something might jump from between the twisted trunks, albeit the old one almost feels like a scene from a dream.
Either way, amazing job on both of them!

I like the old one better somehow. It feels cleaner, the new one seems to have too many lines and the eye gets lost easily

grrroch In reply to kessir [2012-09-20 13:47:46 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I see, that the second one is far more unreal and too symmetric. Well, now this is a progress for me - to know my bads and to know, what was good and what isn't good now. Thanks.

You were already nice on the first one :3 it just looks like you rendered a little more on the second and changed the scenery... It is difficult to improve if you were good already <3
