Description The act or state of vanishing away; disappearance; as, the evanescence of vapor, of a dream.

Original Res: 3000x5000
Time: over 4 hours including touch ups
Music: Jon Hallur - Gallentean 01
Inspiration: My simplicity

So here it is again guys and gals.. I had to resubmit because too many people were complaining that the full sized version wasn't actually showing. This is just another stupid problem with DA, ignore it. I deleted the original because i wanted a fresh submission. This also gave me the chance to fix some minor mistakes i made. Thank you shirosynth for spotting most of those.

This image was at first just a plain black image with the big planet and the title. Nothing else, no moons, no starfield, nada. I dont know why but i thought that it was one of those really simple images that had one focus and got loads of attention from members out of no where, but that didn't happen lol. I just started adding more and more slowly and this is the end result.

Hope its a lot more what people were after. I know i should make art for just me and not care what people think. I dont, but unless their there i dont know how to get better nor improve. So what the hell.

Hope you enjoy this, full view please.

Comments and favs are very appreciated.

Nicely done. A little simple for my tastes, but there IS beauty in simplicity. The only problem I see is the strangeness of the darkened rings, they seem thickened and oddly shaped.

Really well done, lad. Composition is king and negative space is just as important as positive. You've got both working for you with this. Simple can be powerful. : )

NIce work, i like the planet and starfield. Shame the rings don't have some colour, but then it is just ice and rock, and looks cool (i need to learn how to make rings, it looks interesting how u do it)

danes-sweety [2004-01-17 08:31:20 +0000 UTC]

I thought that the rings (the more darker ones) were dust marks on my screen. Only after 5 minutes of screen wiping did i realise they were rings

But I do love this image very space-y

Hmm its a great design. Its to minimalistic though I think some thing is missing in it. not a nebula or any thing like that just a design or something. I love the planet's effects though thos are amazing. nice job over all
