Description Angel Wings (c) *GibbyGibson

This was an idea that I had for a long time, however the original idea did not come from me. I was showing my brother my Angel Wings series, and he said, kind of jokingly, “Make one where the Earth is the center.” I shook it off as a dumb idea at the time, but the concept of that stuck with me. Eventually, I decided to attempt it. I really like how it came out. I know that the planet is not the best thing, but compared to my past planet attempts, this one is the best, in my opinion. This was extremely fun to make, challenging, yes, but fun.

Interesting Information:
Number of Layers: 35
Estimated Time: 3 1/2 hours

We wander through life, choosing the easies routes to our goals, not caring about what that path may cause in the long run, only caring about how fast and at what cost it is to us. Sometimes, we need a guide, one that will lead us and show us the way, even if the path is hard, it is the best for us. It is up to us if we choose to accept that route or not. All we have to do is listen to the person that guides us.

That's the joy of artists, we all can see things slightly different, or vastly (depending upon the cercomstances). Nice to hear from you, and thank you for the nice words. I appreciate them greatly.

Eeeee!!! I love this one, because of just how pretty it is!

I love the the background and the wings, plus the planet. Maybe the planet doesn't go so well, but, then again, it's still REALLY pretty ^^!!!!!! Nice job, I love it!

Out of my Angle Wing series, I like this one the best, myself. I worked hard on this one, and it took longer to make then any of the others. I sometimes feel that I may not be able to top this one, but who knows till I try?

Great atmosphere on this one

I tried to make a plantet once, and it doesn't reach your level by a long shot!

Keep it up!

GibbyGibson In reply to nickbos [2005-06-14 19:26:56 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. At least you attempted it. That is better then not trying and saying that you cannot do it.

The best way of working on planets is to experement. This is not the first planet I have done; far from it. I did several other space scenes before this one. Some of them I liked, most I did not. It just takes practace, determination, and most of all, a vivid imagenation. Just work on them, they will come.

Nice. My only complaint is that some of the start are a bit too bright as they are closer together - then again, that's likely to happen in space!

GibbyGibson In reply to auralwhiplash [2005-05-21 01:31:05 +0000 UTC]

Thank you. I would not know if the closer the stars are, the closer thay are. I have not studies space concepts yet.

auralwhiplash In reply to GibbyGibson [2005-05-21 02:06:24 +0000 UTC]

No problem - I'm not fully sure myself, but I know that two bright objects close together have the tendency to look brighter than usual.

Incredible, I really like space scenes like this because they always seem so peacful to me. The wings seem really well done as well.

Thank you. Like I said at the MN@ Comments Night, it was fun to make, but challenging. I tried space concepts before, and they are hard. I wanted to push myself further then the others, and I believe I did that successfully.

it's beautiful... nice how you didnt forget the moon, either. I might suggest having smaller stars.... or at least having less of them being so large. did that make sense?
haha. it's really beautiful. I wish we really DID have a guardian....

I still feel, in my opinion, that there was something that I could have done to make the planet more then what it is, but that is how people normally feel about their art. There is always something to imporove on. Gald to hear you imput on this. Thank you.
