Description
A little system has since the dawn of times been drifting farther and farther away from its parent galaxy. Soon it will be completely desolate...I made a few galaxies with a simple technique here, and I'm pretty pleased, since they essentially are my first ones. I'm starting to really appreciate the power of light factory, the only plugin I actually use in ps. Made a few pr3t3nd3r-inspired stars, which I think look pretty cool. I've been a little sluggish regarding the star field, might revisit that and improve it later.
(And that flare on the big planet, that's the peeking sun if such a concept would be hard to comprehend).
Original resolution: 9400^2 px.
EDIT: I finally did the improvements I promised in the comment section. Way better star field, better space dust, and updated the planets.
I also thank for giving me my second DD on this picture!
EDIT (2010-12-21): Made som smaller changes.

I really love the picture as a whole, but if I can have a suggestion, the flares, the ones over stars have different angle than the one that's beeking from behind planet.
But that's just me, amazing work though!

It's a mostly computer-generated image.

very cool!
only "critique" (more like opinion) is that the distant milky ways, look like they are extremely small and next to the planet, instead of far of, it's probably because you can't exactly draw/paint perspective over all 9/10!

Thank you. Yes, it's a bit hard to get a good perspective in space, because everything is incomprehensibly large.
