Full view, please.

Yeah, this pretty much took forever. I haven't done a space landscape art in quite some time, but I like to believe I have improved in that area. I worked on it every time I couldn't sleep, spread the project out through a few weeks. Those that know me very well know that I'm always dreaming up far off places and other worlds; this is a reflection of that.

My resource links are below. I spent a lot of time in Terragen trying to perfect the atmosphere (general mood and color), water and land to match the view I saw in my mind. I used one of Hameed's starfield stocks to help enhance my own; his are so beautiful that I couldn't resist. I can't create earth-like planets with clouds very well just yet, so I used his stock for that, as well. The other two planets I created using my own textures with the help of Alyn's tutorial -- although, you can't quite see the details in those since I resized them for this project. The tower was rendered in Poser and all post work on the image, brush work done to add color to the celestial sky was done in Photoshop.

Programs: Terragen, Poser, Photoshop

Resources:
// Hameed's beautiful earth-like planet stock, as well as partial use of one of his starfield's.
// A lot of help from Alyn's planet tutorial.
// Photoshop hazy brushes are my own.
