After some time playing around with different things i finally decided to work out another spacescape, the classic calm soothing piece. I was toying with the idea of something more dramatic like an explotion but i gotta admit im not that confident in my skills at the moment. Its been way too long since i made anything afterall.
Ok, the foreground image is composed of 5 different pictures. I must say i had a hell working out that transition, but i think it turned out ok. The lower part with the lake was originally in nature blue, wich was kinda a pain to work into the strong contrast of the sunset.
The big planet up left is my newest planet, Spectronica, hehe, i guess i was kinda tired figuring out that cheesy name , so dont flame me too much lol. I was working on some different techniques regarding the texture wich worked out great. And compared to most of my previous planets, Spectronica has few clouds. I will be posting the planet soon as well as a wallpaperversion, after some more tuning i guess.
The starfield is pretty classic, though i wanted to keep the piece natural and not blog it with a big nebula or something bright as a flare.
Its good to be back my friends
Frenz..

I visited your gallery after downloading your Forevermore wallpaper. Your skill and artistry is just wonderful. Beautiful and elegant. Keep up the great work.
Very nice! There is some noise though in the bottom part, you should use reduce noise filter in Photoshop CS2, works like a charm! But it can also be the JPEG quality, mmm whatever. Great moon but again the planet, I think a red atmosphere would work better with the overall picture...
i think i will put you a watch, if you don't mind, of course
