    It looks wonderfull Domino! I love the magical feeling that’s coming through with the stars in the backround, I would go a touch darker on that part just to make them pop out a bit more but it looks great as it is. I think this is one of my favourites in the challenge, I really love the concept here... And I’m with ladiestorm on the waterfalls, it would be a nice touch to see them spilling over onto the bottom part.

    Yes, I found the forest really nice too.

    What is the red in the background? Is it a galaxy?

Any chance one of them might spill over and down the rest of the mountain? If not, I certainly understand
    Thanks storm, and yes you do see faces I will play around with some of the water spilling over the edge.

    Thank you Kacey! I think darkening the sky would work better, thanks for the input!

    Thank you Azélor! The red in the background is a galaxy The L Storm galaxy. It's named after Ladiestorm.

    I was just joking about a Bogie Constellation, but now that does sound cool! Three stars in a triangle with a few others making an eye shape in the middle, interesting!

    Or you could use the real Eye Nebula in the center.

    I really like the idea of the nebula in your Constellation, I will add that later.

    I haven't been able to work a lot on this the last few days because I'm working on another project. I added more water falling over the bottom mountain (per requests), some of the constellations and night sky elements, labels, and some corner decorations.

    Again everyone participating in this challenge is going to get their own constellation, nebula, star, or cluster. If anyone that I haven't added yet has any requests feel free to give them to me!

    whoa, I was just looking at this closer and realized a bunch of cool details (faces in the forest...shivers). Also, thanks for giving me a constellation, that's awesome. And Jester is correct.

    By the way, I think this really really looks like an album cover and the labels are the songs. Nailed it!

    ahhhh… the L Storm Galaxy, and you made it purple, which is my favorite color!!!! That is soooo cool! Laugdenor's Tower has such a beautiful view! I absolutely LOVE the constellations!!! A great way to commemorate this challenge!

    I do have one more suggestion... and it's basically another one of my stray thoughts. Maybe add some more depth to the mountain itself, with varying shades of brown? To make it earthier, maybe a little less rocky. And perhaps a little more greenery on the floating part of the mountain, so that the garden has something to blend into, maybe.

    Okay, that's two suggestions... but this is such a fantastic map, it keeps setting my imagination wild!

    yet tranquility proceeds
