Hey Bryan, you have taken a few leaps in this image. firstly you made landscape topography and mare importantly you used a reference image as inspiration. Learning by trying to reference another image is absolute key to learning and improving skills. If anybody asked me the key learning modelling and rendering that would be my advice do that until you do not have to do it anymore 👍 👍 👍
I am in total agreement with you.
BTW, Nice render Bryan!
