Description A little system has since the dawn of times been drifting farther and farther away from its parent galaxy. Soon it will be completely desolate...
I made a few galaxies with a simple technique here, and I'm pretty pleased, since they essentially are my first ones. I'm starting to really appreciate the power of light factory, the only plugin I actually use in ps. Made a few pr3t3nd3r-inspired stars, which I think look pretty cool. I've been a little sluggish regarding the star field, might revisit that and improve it later.

(And that flare on the big planet, that's the peeking sun if such a concept would be hard to comprehend).

Original resolution: 9400^2 px.

EDIT: I finally did the improvements I promised in the comment section. Way better star field, better space dust, and updated the planets.
I also thank for giving me my second DD on this picture!

EDIT (2010-12-21): Made som smaller changes.

Depends on how you crop the image, or how the lenses/mirrors in the camera are arranged.

Thank you! Hmm, I'm very poor in keeping track of how long stuff takes to create. But I wouldn't be lying if I said it took longer than 6 hours, at least.

GamerWorld14 In reply to astrovista [2009-12-28 19:56:12 +0000 UTC]

Yes, I can see how it took so long to make, I really like it

How did you make those larger stars and the large nebula swirl?

Nice. I like how the light glints of the planet and the mother galaxy is shown in the distance. How it almost beckons the planet to come back home.
