Description This is my first proper space scene, and my first try at creating a nebula. It's meant to be the very begining of the life of a solar system, where the nebula will form the centeral star.


Used Apophysis for the nebula body. Thanks to Stamga for the nebula tutorial [link] which i improvised for use in GIMP.

PS If you wish to use this in your own work, please do so, but put a comment with a link if possible.
Thanks

*EDIT* Changed the moon's atmospheres to red to match the planet

You asked for feedback so here I am! Hurray
First of all, try to give more colors to your works. Monochromatic work good, but usually it's too monotone.
It's good that you're using Apophysis flames for nebulae, but those renders needs a lot of postwork to become beautiful and unique creations. Try that tutorial: [link]
Also, the atmosphere of the planet doesn't have to match the planet color. More than that, it's usually a nice touch if for example red planet has blue atmosphere.
Hope it's not too harsh, just practice a lot and upload for feedback

thanks for the feedback. very much appriciated. i did acctually spend a lot of time on the postwork, as it was originally rendered, and suposed to be a blue/green nebula, but it ended up being red.
i will keep this in mind. again, thanks!

Again, it needs a lot of work to change simple render into awesome nebula, and it's hard.
But you're doing well, just need a practice
