Lord of the Rings: War in the North

In this entry, I'm still going to look at the saturation and the color value of Lord of the Rings: War in the North.  This title is going to be released in November 1 as a game in many platforms.  Being a huge fan of Lord of the Rings, I've been waiting for this game for a long time now.  I even followed their facebook page to look for some news regarding the game or special offers.  A couple of days ago, I was clicking through the photographs when I found several great concept arts on their facebook page. 

All of these pictures have a really great atmosphere.  Looking at the first picture, we could see that there are a lot of fires burning strongly in several places in the ground. This gives a more gray and red reflection to the surrounding environments.  The red is obviously coming from the fire, and the grey is from the smoke.  That's why, the ground, and some neraby walls and environment near the fire has a red saturation on it.  While on the higher places, grey is more dominating.  The same thing can be said with the other 3 pictures.  I personally like the last image; feels like in a Mirkwood Forset, it has a mysterious and calm sensation in it.  the shadow in forground suggest that behind us is the darker and deeper forest, while in the background, it looks like a way out of the forest.  And it is possible to achieve this by using a lot of different value and saturation of green.
