Wow I really like this one! The edge bewteen the rock and the "other
side" seems a little too sharp to me. Just my 2 cents.

This is 100 percent better than the other one and the other was okay I thought.
Those grass blades sure are introducing a lot of granularity but I think it
doesn't hurt much.
Great fantasy art.

So, I take it you've seen enough portals in person to be able to
accurately judge this scene's realism?
Anyway, I like this image also. The sharpness of the portal itself
tends to draw your attention to that part of the image. Even the
pattern of the clouds above seems to radiate outward from the portal.
It leaves the viewer wanting to approach the portal and to ponder what
it might be like to touch or enter into it - just as portals tend to
do in real life...

Having just looked at it for the second time (first time was bleary eyed
early this morning!) I can see it still needs some more work on the grass,
flowers and bottom right hand corner!
Oh well...get on with it!

Great image! Especially the grass and the flower-things...the footpath
to the portal was also done well.
Only one thing...the portal appears to open into empty space. Shouldn't
the atmosphere be rushing through the portal, creating a small tornado
and sucking everything in the area along with it? Or does the physics of
the portal prevent that?(a gravitational field surrounding the other
"end" of the portal, strong enough to hold a spherical cloud of
atmosphere with enough pressure to keep the air from passing through?)
Or am I just over-analyzing?

You're over analysing! but it's a great idea! don't think I've the math for
it though.

*wow*
The rather abrupt color change makes the portal really jump out at you.
I was thinking something didn't look quite right; now I figured it out:
the "other side" seems to lack depth for some reason. Maybe rotate the
galaxy a little if you can so it is not perpindicular to the camera.

Perhaps the physics of this portal only allows fast-moving things like
light to get through, and not large slowly moving objects such as
molecules of air? In this case, the portal is not something that one
could travel through, but only an "observation window."
later,

No, the space landscape was painted on a large canvas and stretched over the
hole, in order to fool imaginative sci-fi fans. I guess that a close-up would
reveal some nails and strings holding the thing.
Very nice image, btw.

One of the best POV images ever. Would love to
see it as a stereoscopic pair.

Spectacular! I just have to break my own rule here and ask you for the
arch code. I assume it's a torus with some sort of iso-surface applied to
it? The arch by itself would have blown me away, but then you went ahead
and placed it in a really nice scene. Very good job!

As I've said before, I'm a big fan of your work: if I got better, I
think I'd like to do work like yours.
The clouds, however, in some of your recent work, I don't like. It may
simply be a function of the camera angle. It portrays a sense of
urgency, movement, dramatic framing, and this often seems out of place
in your drawings.

I think the clouds, especially in this image really help! I know what you
mean by the sense of urgency you talk about but I think it really fits in
here.

Well, maybe it's more appropriate for this one. I think there was a more
serene landscape a week or so ago and I never took the time to comment.

I like It pretty much (the first one too), how does it work? how would it
react If you used it in animation? I´ve tried somethin like this as well
(see dimension tunnel in p.b.i.) but if I look at your results I think I´m
doing something else..
btw, what´s that with the Portal patch in Megapov??
