is the 3d made in nuke or just imported from maya or some other 3d program? looks nice man :)

@candyman3 The 3d is mostly made in Nuke but some of the geo also got some work in Zbrush to get something that is shaped more like a mountain. Thanks!

Looks amazing! Did you use any tutorials, guides or other educational material? I'd appreciate if you'd give me some tips on how to learn to do work with Matte Paintings in Nuke. Thanks in advance!

Thanks! Well I went to University when I made this so I learned most of it there. But I would say the best source for learning is fxphd.com
