Description
What started out as a simple test of masking layers turned into a full on art piece! I didn't know what I was really doing, but wanted to make anything that looked like it belong. No references, just imagination. Honestly, I love how it turned out, and you can love it too! Feel free to download it as a wallpaper or whatever :>Time Taken: Three hours
Tablet: WACOM's Bamboo Create
Program: Adobe Photoshop CS5

Are you familiar the planet Zeus I think it was called it was a sci-fi concept where a planet had skewing rings like this because they formed two separate magnetic field lines because that is what I think when I see that. Th sun also looks like an orange dwarf star, and it is shedding its outer gas layers till only a compact dense white dwarf center remains, I think this is a wonderful image fore just happening by accident the way you put it, and a planet in turmoil to well done.

I think the concept is fairly old, well I think I first heard it on PBS in Mysteries of Deep Space, a special from 1997

Whatever you were experimenting with, this turned out freaking awesome. I love how dull the bronze/golden sun's (?) halo is. And the chilly halo around the planet too, it looks cool.
You should make more pieces like this.

I also think by doing that, you balance the picture out. Sure, sometimes you can get a more interesting composition by not drawing things directly in the middle but it may look out of a balance. But you're welcome.
