Description
Nyx here is supposed to mean "night" but "night" sounded too bland so I decided to spice the title up a little ahah
It literally took me like 40 mins to come up with a title T-T

Anyway, I had actually started this a looong while ago but never got to finish it
Athena also needed some more attention
So today I randomly found it again and decided it deserved to be finished lol

I'm actually really proud of the background here even if the mountains are just a black thing Though to be honest, I've seen mountains from afar at night and they just look like a black thing in the distance so yeah
I can spot some mistakes on anatomy here already, buuut yeh I didn't bother to fix them

Overall I like how this came out though
Bonus points for those who noticed the temple in the distance at first glance

Art, Athena(c) (me)

Good job! I really like the shading, and those glowy orb things! But I think the stars look a bit too uniform in the sky. Try making some smaller ones, some slightly larger ones, then copy pasting what you have a bunch of times while rotating it as stretching it slightly. Remember, you should either have a ton of stars, where they are overlapping, but there is still noticlble clumps of larger stars. Or, have a smaller amount, where there are some stretches without stars, and others where there are clumps. Remember, it's randomness that is beautiful. And remember - don't be afraid of the mountains and moon when you're copy pasting. They are in front of all the stars, so copy paste some on the layer behind them as well, so it doesn't look like they get close, but can't really touch the mountains or the moon.

Anywho, here's what I've done with stars, dunno if this will help or not. 
Larger amount:

Smaller amount:

I hope that helps!
