Description Title:
Title is no big deal here. I've started with the sun as a base and no idea, that was supposed to be practical only. Then I've added planets, which were dangerously close to the sun. Oh well, their fault. Don't play with fire..

Story:
I won't lie, my inspirations here were both 's pipper-svk.deviantart.com/art/… and 's sirgerg.deviantart.com/art/Sol… . They are so far my favourite suns over there, and they are hot. Literally. But I love them too. Cause they're hot.
So there we are, me, loving suns, want to make really gorgeous one. To be proud of. I kind of managed, I'm proud of this sun, which is rare So i simply hope you'll like it too

Don't man, it deserved it. Out playing next to a sun, it should have known better.

Besides, its just one of the benefits of being an artist. While some blow up fire crackers, we destroy planets.

Całkiem fajne Ekstra Ci wyszło to Słońce czy jakaś tam inna gwiazda, bardzo fajny ciepły klimat, po za tym, że jest lekko zbyt mocno wyostrzone to bardzo mi się podoba

synax444 In reply to ??? [2010-02-17 10:19:54 +0000 UTC]

OMG! Thats crazy good! Perfect contrast... I must say I have one tiny suggestion, and thats to maybe go over the land/shore areas on the texture with the liquify tool... just on those few spots.. then no one will be able to tell its a planet texture Just a thought.

But honestly, this is really good stuff man... Impressed..

R3V4N In reply to synax444 [2010-02-17 10:25:27 +0000 UTC]

Could you note me and tell where the exact spots are? I took some textures off during process, but I could overlook something. Thanks a lot, I really appreciate that mate
