Even I don't remember putting this much detail into my gas giant resource, you must have merged mine with an image of Jupiter 
I think the scaling of the cloud bands is too narrow, this close would have you see only two or three of the stripes at most, if you have 3D you could test yourself by applying a Jupiter-map to a sphere and bringing the sphere so close it takes up the entire view, why - the Great Red Spot would probably take up a quarter of the view alone 
But yeah - really cool idea

Yeah I added some detail by brushing but nothing major

Thats really cool. I don't think I have seen a spacescape quite like this, its very unique.
That red glow on the right side was a nice touch too

The image is great. I wish the noise had not happened with the atmosphere. Is that a jpeg thing? More atmosphere samples may be needed otherwise.
You have a rich imagination. I am glad I followed one of your posts.

Lovely scene. Somehow it lacks a bit of depth but it is not major problem. I love it!

Thanks. That might be because the scale is a bit unrealistic

Straight to my wallpapers folder. My only crit is that the gas giant looks a bit too far away to fill the whole sky because of the scale of the texture. I might be wrong though. Either way this is totally epic.

Thanks. You're actually right. It's not very realistic but I dont mind
