oooh! NICE! I love how the lone star shines in the background-perfect! ...at least, I think you meant it to be a star, right? Anyway, well done!

Yeah, it was meant to be a star. No worries!
Thanks!

You're getting better. The only problem I find is in the correlation of the shadow on the planet and the rings themselves. The rings seem a bit off-axis and the lighting on them should be a bit different. Mostly due to the star point of reference.
Otherwise, great job. You improve with every piece. I wish I could say the same for myself.

Yeah, that's the only thing I don't like about this piece... That and the planet texture... Lighting and texture... Gotta work on those.
Well, for you there's not really much to improve on, because you already are danged good.

Well, that's what practice is for. I know I'm going to have a heck of a lot of trouble with reings when I start doing 'em. We should do a space collab sometime.

Maybe. I wanna try my hand at a combo ground/space thing first and see what happens.

Atmospheric? Explain please.
I'm just combining a bunch of elements that I thought would look cool. Like, meteors, astroids, planets, and nebulas... Oh, and TG rendered gound things... but yeah.

Well, I was thinking it'd be interesting to have a render where...
Okay. A day/night shot. Split (faded) down the middle. TG render on either side, melded together, a planet in the sky. I'd have to sketch it out.

I see where your going. Is the planet in the middle, or are there two, one on either side?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm not sure. I was thinking of it being on either side (same planet) with different lighting for day/night. It'd be a really cool piece.
Wait.
Want to do this as a collab? You do the TG renders you do so very very well and I do the planetary compositing and starfield?

Sure! Any specific landscapes you might want?

Not sure... something mountainous, perhaps? Coastline would be a bit too difficult to begin with... But we'd have to figure out (plan) each render. Want me to do a concept sketch so we can figure out the lighting beforehand?

K... I'll whip up a quick digital painting one of these days (well, as soon as I get free time) and send it to you. Or post it. Or both.
