This group was created for the purpose of gathering concept artists who love working with mods and those who look forward to joining one.
This is a very cliché concept showing a possible horror-ish movie. I was listening to some horror OST and I haven't uploaded something decent for a while, so I went with it and created this.
I've also included the stock image I used to show what I've actually changed. It includes: Retouching of the foreground (getting rid off the branch), changing the overall lightsetting from neutral to one light source, adding a monochromatic color palette, adding rain, adding more dramatic clouds and adding lightnings.

Love it!
Thanks for adding the before/after pics, I would have no idea how much work you did without it.
Great blending job!
This is appearing a bit too dark for me, personally. It could just be monitor settings or the color profile that you are using. I think the darkness is hiding some of the interesting detail in the foreground. But besides that, you did a great job with altering the overall atmosphere. Clouds, lightening, rain, and overall lighting look very convincing. I especially like the lighter outline that you added to the roof; to simulate rain splash and differentiate it from the dark sky behind it. Well done.
Thanks. I had trouble finding the right lightsetting for this one, it's probably not (just) your monitor. The truth is that I didn't want to cut out the house and adjust each layer seperately, although it would have been the best. It would have taken quite some extra time on retouching to hide all the edges that I would have gotten after cutting.
Also, I'm not quite happy with the composition, getting rid off the branch in the foreground was a bad decision regarding composition and level of depth. But, it was pretty much the main reason why I started editing, I wanted to see, whether I can do it.
Definitely not my best work here, but it was fun to create and that's what's most important for me.
for me tho the normal is more creepy :) but i do like the picture
I Live There! xD.
