vladmoney Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 this "cracks" in the sky don't make it seem that realstic. But everything else is beautiful. Great JOb Visit my DeviantArt Page at http://vladmoney.deviantart.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Diveloperz Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 Make the stars less consistent. I'm not even sure if they're stars or particles of debree. Make some bigger, and brighter, and some just 1pxl white dots with low opacity. The horizontal lighting effect is kinda weird. Maybe make it an ellipse so it looks more 3D and thus easier to see. Other than that, looks neat. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quer_Skulll Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 well the red reminds me of a cloud render.. sorry but the brushing isnt to good on this one try using a normal brush or an airbrush on 10 to 15 opacity or is this supossed to be one of them views where you look up and see clouds and space behind it.. i also noticed a green ball.. somehwere near the top left.. is that a so called easter egg?

jabraulter Posted January 2, 2005 Author Share Posted January 2, 2005 thanks everybody. criticism makes a good artist ;) and quer, the green ball was from a lens flare and i think i forgot to erase that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Maras Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 I like it but i think you should do more little bright ones or whatever that other guy said. http://www.rampid.org Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nadril Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 hmmm.... interesting. I know you used a tutorial for this one, i remember seeing it around somewhere. Anyways, if i were you i would first add ome more red behind the stars, by making the star layer put on "screen" and then brushing with a 10-15% red brush under it. Also, a few small planets "could" make this more interesting. Another thing the scene is lacking is depth. it needs more of it. Overall, not a bad peice. More variation from the stars could be nice too, and maybe blend in the whole nebula/what not with the actual scene, right now it looks like it was just kind of "pasted" on there with no care for how it affects the scene. ~Nadril Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no, i did not use a tutorial for this. I did it on the way up to chicago in the car. Some of the elements were inspired by tutorials...ie the horizontal ellipse thing in the bottom left, but a tutorial was not directly used for it. just made a dot and smeared it and overlayed it with a pinched-in-the-center pattern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KakashiX Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 *Blur the edges of the cloud render in order to take out the pixely look to it. *You can try duplicating the nebula layer, colorize it a different color, then overlaying it on the current nebula. With that done, use a brush eraser and take away little pieces so that there is variation in color for the nebula. *For the blue, try to texturize the layer a bit, brush with difference opacities/blending modes, or use some textured brushes. It'll make a big difference and make it look better. Hope that helps :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
