Hey everyone. I decided to try a few different things now. Although the wallpaper has a similar color concept, I tried many different things with it. I used 3 different images for this wallpaper. I used only one brush for this wallpaper and it was the clouds. Most of everything else was made from scratch. xD It was fun. Making this wallpaper taught me a lot. Please note that I did NOT draw the girl. However her scan quality was bad so you'll probably see some crap on her. lol Perhaps one day I'll be able to draw all of this. xD

First comment. Woot!

First off: HOLY CRAPIN' CRAP! This is unbelievable! Fantastic job.

Today I just got photoshop and a tablet, and I really want to start making awesome stuff like this... How can I make stuff as awesome as this!?

Rayl Says:

Well... wow... holy shit. You've made something amazing here however there are one or two tiny problems. The main glaring one however is the relation between the scan you've used and the background. I think you really needed to darken the scan you used cause seriously it shows But other then that it's all really well put together and i can only praise you for the work :3

Because I'm a critic, I have to point out a few things.

First, I'm going to point out that the lighting on the scenery is entirely off. With the planet that close, there should be a ton of light, and the intense light you have shouldn't be the most intense spots. Second, on the landscape, the light source on the left side of the wallpaper is different from that of the right side.

The clouds and comet are really flat, which absolutely kill the picture. The planet looks pretty good, but some of the scars on it are a bit obnoxious... Also, I dislike the lowered opacity of the clouds and comet. And as a final point of dislike, the edges of the cliff shouldn't be feathered like they are. It kills the realism of it.

I do like the concept, and most of the execution is flawless. Nice job. =)
