Here is my newest project.
I made this over the course of 2 days.
I did the post processing entirely in Blender.
Here is the image with the Kuwhara filter:
And here is a pixel-art style version:
And here is the raw render of the image with a slider so you can compare the edits I made, to the original.
Here are also some breakdown images that show the progress of the scene over time, from blockout to final form.
For the rock cliff I just used geometry nodes to displace, and mixed multiple displacement maps.
I also added some boulders from a previous project where I made a boulder generator:
I also made a quick system for the small water plants to create a root system that is visible below the water.
Cheers!
