Description
Synaptic TerminalA collaboration between me and Kim laurila [link] . He created the organic (neuron) looking render and they reminded me immidiatlyto some illustrations in my biology book. The shapes really look like a structure of a vertebrate neuron.
For those who didnt pay attention in biology class here is some information wich should make the concept more clear.
The cell body of an structure of a vertebrate neuron has two types of processes, or extensions: Dendrites generally receive inputs and conduct signals toward the cell body, whereas axons conduct signals away from the cell body. At the end of the axon, terminal branches each have a synaptic terminal that makes connections with other neurons or target cells.
The working of the CNS (central nervous system) always facinated me. So i tried to make in this picture an visual intrepretation
of it. I hope you like it

Total sweetness, bro. I always knew Biology must help at least one person. (Of course, I plan on majoring on it in college.)

Sweet shit!
Great job, both of you.
Love Kim's renders.
Maybe more colors, with more contrast would make it look better.

Awesome stuff. A really nice concept to draw from. If you look a little deeper it kinda looks like space and the stars in the background.

Coolass. The CNS and the PNS were both of the few things that interested me last year in Bio. Haha, looks great~

Very cool, im liking it alot. Im guessing it was a bit of max with some ps?
Very dark and moody, i dont like the text to the right however, it feels out of place.

That is indeed very well excuted! Its nice to see work with some thought behind it, and the quality to pull it off! The sense of depth and space is tremendous and the atmosphere very well balanced, its not eerie but it does have that mysterious sparkle.
Im happy you kept the saturation under control, which usually ruins pieces like this. Excellent!

wtf my comment disappeared.
err well i said the render is really beautiful, brushing excellent from you as usual.
and maybe a bit more 2d would be a nice addition, some light 2d work?
good job both
