Description
My only peice for The Luminarium 's 6th exhibit originally given the theme "illuminate" but was really more of a freestyle thing. I would loved to have made more but was busy during most of that time, and had no idea the closing date would be delayed by a few weeks eitherI sought inspiration from my favourite game - Super Smash Bros Brawl for this idea, anyone who has played it would surely be familiar with the ever-changing space scenery on the "Final Destination" stage and choosing just one of the backgrounds was hard (since that golden sea part is cool too
I started with two basic Vue scenes, rendered above a dense layer of clouds. But realistic as they were - they were rather boring so a lot of Digital painting was involved and I don't think there's much un-painted render left

Maybe an inverse milky way, where the middle is empty and the top and bottom are dense clouds of dust

Wings would be nice, but such an epic-scale scene would take forever to fly through with wings - we need light-speed jet propellers just to get around

Thanks for asking, but until the day comes that I start making stock, I don't let people use my art unless it's for a paid purpose that also benifits me
Glad you like it though, no harm in asking I guess

I love watching the background on Final Destination, especially this spiraling sunset part.

Thanks, and I had a hard time deciding whether to do this scene or the sunset-sea version too...both look fantastic, but this was more fitting the theme of what I made it for

Oh, well that's a question I can't even answer ...the background scenery in the game repeats after a couple of minutes anyway

Stunning! The clouds seem like they would be a pain to do but the detail is too gorgeous to ignore!
Your work is always captivating.

Chromattix In reply to LadyWinter [2009-05-30 06:51:27 +0000 UTC]
Clouds usually are more rpetitive than a challenge or "pain" to me, it's basically the same process all over, I saved a bit of time by rendering some 3D clouds as a base though but yeah, took quite a while even still

fuelie In reply to ??? [2009-05-21 06:58:56 +0000 UTC]
Absolutely stunning, I love all the depth and detail and different shades of colour. It reminds me a lot of the epic reeling space-scape scene in The Two Towers when Gandalf is talking about what happened after he fought the Balrog.

Great painting! Love the game too! Those are some amaizing clouds! I would have no idea how to start something like this. I love it!

Thanks! the game is great and I'm glad you like this too Though I can do clouds a bit like this from scratch, I started off with some 3D rendered clouds for added realism and to save some time too
but there was still hours spent carefully painting over it for a more artist feel
