So.. ive been making this

though now im stuck
i dislike the sepia tint, and i think the piece has more potential.
its just that i've ran out of ideas.
i need a groundbreaking idea that will give a twist to the whole picture, while still keeping it realistic

That's pretty cool looking. I think what it is missing is focus, though. The original mountain picture you used is a panoramic picture, so you have that stark contrast between earth and sky on the horizon line, so the eye is first drawn to that. Even after I saw the rhino there, I still felt like I was supposed to be looking at the horizon or the mountain range as a whole.

What I think would be cool is if you restored just a little bit of color saturation so that you can see the blue of the sky just a little bit, and then made more of the mountains into rhinos and make it maybe look almost like a stampede. With a panoramic picture, they eye is drawn to look at either the horizon line or everything that's in front of the rear most background (Usually the sky) so if you make the entire middle- to fore- ground area be like a herd of rhinos (Maybe not stampeding, maybe grazing would be better. Looks like the one you have there is grazing?)

Also, I agree, I think you should lose the sepia tone. To me it seems like it's trying to hard to break up the natural lines of the picture, which isn't a good idea with a picture like this where it's clear that the mountains extend off the image.

I think it's a cool idea, though, and I think the one rhino that's there would be cool if you had a natural way to bring focus to it. (I gave the one idea above, but I am sure there are other ways.)
