just another p.o.s. my planet lighting is off, and im not sure about my texture choices ( from nasa, btw ). the neb is an old one i painted mixed with a cloud stock from here [link] .
edit- changed rings.
edit #2- tried to add depth to the neb, so i busted out me intuos 4 (hubby got me for christmas), and got a little smudge happy.
ok first this is NOT a pos. it's a bit oversharpened, but the colors are really nice and the composition is getting better. the main problem is the planetary rings, the POV is messed up...it looks like you're looking up at them, but they get bigger near the side and it looks weird.
keep practicing, i really like this new nebula style
is that any better? the sharpness was my doing (to the jpeg), not the psd file. as for the rings, it is a problem area of mine, cuz i cant do perspective, i guess. and thanks.
i did get smudge happy, but this is actually the oversmudged one, mixed with the old one to un-smudge it a tad. it was way worse when it was by itself.
keep practicing, i really like this new nebula style
