Description
From the last post:
www.deviantart.com/newdivide17…
Where it simply focuses on the shockwave from Ceti Alpha 6 exploding that shifted the orbit of Ceti Alpha 5 to where it was rendered lifeless and in a position similar to where Ceti Alpha 6 would have been 15 years later.
It was made with an airbrush on Corel PaintShop Pro 2022 on a black background with a white airbrush with its hardness set to zero. Then a black airbrush in the middle of the white one, but offset. That wasn't intentional, but it did have the look of the first black hole ever photographed. I filled the outer edges with flat black, then used the depth of field to soften the edges of the shockwave.
I then squished it down so it looked like the shockwave.
I copied the image and adjusted it so the brightness/contrast so the centre of the shockwave would be more prominent, and put it on top of the original after I had given the original a purplish hue.
These aren't step by step instructions, I'm just trying to recall how I made this with what could be considered accidents. So NO AI!!!
