Description Full view essential.

Planet rendered in 3dsmax, the planet texture's, nebulae starfield etc all done in photoshop cs. So this is what i imagine a galaxy being born would look like.

oh my F****** god, this is the best piece i've seen
a tutorial on how u did that nebula, will be the best contribution ever to us! hehehe
i can say, without a doubt, that a nebula like that is a goal that lot of us were trying to achieve. my case, i have no idea how to do it
good luck and congrats!

Thats amazing. You not only capture beauty, or derive works from inspiration, but you actually go and think of new things, never before seen, and then go and portray it with such accuracy, such spendor, and such serenity that it is absolutely mind boggling.

Your nebulae are incredible - I really cannot fathom how you do them. Incredible amounts of detail and wonderful color usage. Great composition here as well. Seriously, I've spent the last 6 months trying to brush nebulae like these with absolutely no luck. Great work.

the one thing in space art i still have difficulty achieving effectively is making subtle backdrops when it comes to elaborate scenes, yet you can capture them seamlessly like this, it's very impressive, and i can appreciate the piece that much more for it. The main galaxy at the bottom looks sublime - it all works perfectly.

i salute you

again excellent work, looks just amazing. +fav

just an idea: i wonder how it would look if the bright big star/ area on the right of the galaxy, was also a forming galaxy; like our real galaxies sisters/twins the Magellans, just a thought!

You probably dont know this but that uses the exact same sony tft lcd. As both displays are made by sony, at the same factory no less.

ranathari [2004-04-11 21:59:56 +0000 UTC]

Still very, very sweet but I have to say that it doesn't look that much like a protogalaxy to me... When I hear the word 'protogalaxy' I think big, bright, semi-organised violence in the creation of a new galaxy but this is kinda...well... limp is the word that springs to mind... It's a shame because this is a very good piece, I just don't think that the title matches

DKF [2004-04-11 09:32:47 +0000 UTC]

well, imo you didn't have to remove the planet. the planet itself looked pretty nice, it was the glow around it that was disturbing. anyway, good job once again
