Description I decided to grab the first version and work on it a little.
I'm quite pleased with the outcome.

This will be the last version of this piece.

I prefer the 2nd one. The orbs and especially the left one are too dark for me on this one.
But I love the blue background, looks less abstract and more like real space.

I like it. I think it could use a bit more brightness in spots to complement the lighting but thats just me. Awesome piece, KIU.

Tutorial? This looks awesome, I'm curious how you did it. However, it might benifit from a little spherize on the bubbles to make the distortion more apparent.

Grily In reply to Elfdud7 [2012-07-11 14:31:51 +0000 UTC]

I created the orbs with default brushes.

3 Hard brushes, I erased the middle with a soft brush and I smudge within the flow of the rest. That's basically it.

I also added some pen tooling lines and a nebula stock as background.

Also some gradient maps, levels, etc.

Came out good. Only part I don't like is the top right corner. Doesn't quite match the spacious environment of the rest of the sig.

Grily In reply to zTrinity [2012-07-10 10:20:26 +0000 UTC]

This piece is made from scratch.

The 3 Orbs are made with default brushes.
I started with a hard brush and erased the middle with a soft brush.

Then I just started smudging within the same flow and I ended up with this.

I only used a part of a nebula stock for the background.

Just practice I guess
