Description
I'm not particularly fond of my nebula in this oneFor untold centuries those who could see the heavens were the Shepard for all the people, until the day of reckoning came. Now all that remains are the lights which mark those gone...just dust and echoes...

Ummm... lovely work. But then, that's why we chose it for a book cover.
Thanks, guys.

Apophysis for fractals, and Photoshop for all other work.

Great otherworldly environment there, certainly gives it an eerie vibe with a sense of curiousity to explore it. The landscape really is one of the best depictions of an alien environment I've seen in a while, with its depth, forms and lighting. The space scenery is also apt (and I liked the "just dust and echoes..." part of the story), though you're right that the nebulae could be tweaked a little. It looks a bit burnt in spots - some dodge tool and a bit of soft blurred light could help it I think, otherwise it has nice forms and the flares have a nice look to them.

Yes I thought some of the transition elements were a little slap-dash. I'm already begun work on the spiritual successor for this piece for the next Attrius artpack. As for the burned areas, seems like I could have drop the opacity a bit on the layers involved in addition to your dodge suggestion. Thank you very much James, I'm honoured that someone with your talent took the time to stop by and critique.

nice work overall!

Ya I personally hate it, more of something out of desperation, let's say the spiritual successor for this is coming along nicely, but won't be seen until the next art pack.

I like the understatedness of your neb.
It just works for me.
Shame you missed the art pack. This would have been the star of the show.

Shame yes, but I think it's good that it did. I'm not very happy with the neb overall.

Well you might not, but as an outsider looking in 
But all things artsy can get better..its just the nature of art.

That is some serious quality work right there, especially the landscape. The weird...things, buildings, whatever poking out of it...it's like something out of Dune.
