Description
This is my ultimate space tutorial. it is a large zip file which contains the tutorial in html format. i tried to cover in detail everything that most poeople would want to know about space art in photoshop. it is quite long because i have included more than one way to do many things.INCLUDED:
Planets: different, detailed ways to make planet bases, textures, colours, rings, suns, detail and other things
Nebulae: 2/3 different ways to make cool and realistic nebulae for your art
Stars: only one way, but a good way
Tools: i outlined how to use layers and some of the tools in photoshop if anyone didnt know
Usefulness section: i made a section on how to use brushes (making them, texturing them, etc), a tutorial i made on lens flare and links to sites and tutorials.
i had planned on including brushes with the tutorial but that would make the file huge, so they are in a seperate file for download here: [link] . i also explained how to load them in the tutorial.
i tried to make it as coherent and detailed as possible, it is all made through my own experiance and messing around for many months now. the only part that isnt my own is the base creation, this is outlined clearly and linked to the rightful tutorial author.
this took days to make (lots of writing-.-) if there is anything unclear or anything that needs changing please note me and i will update the file..apart from that
enjoy!

yes...in planets after the first page you go to the texture page. at the top of that there is a link called "finishing tuches" it's in there. i'm sorry i didnt put one at the bottom*-) i really should have

Great tutorial, thank you! But I stumbled across a point where I was a little confused. It's in the nebulae 1 where you put the lens flare in:
Put this one behind the black layer but over the nebula.
Does that mean have the nebula layer active when making the lens flare or making a new layer between the two? I guess the first one for it seems you can't put a lens flare in an empty layer. Would be helpful if that was clearly said in the tut.
Otherwise

Statross In reply to Sinceredir [2007-10-17 19:09:50 +0000 UTC]
hmm*-) perhaps you're right. i stuck a little "how to" render flares at the end of the whole thing (in a "usefulness" section...but yes, should have been clear on how to render it.
it should, indeed, be put on a black layer in between and the layer subsequently set to linear dodge (or screen in old versions)...and now i read it, that wasn't in the main body either.
good. i shall amend and re-upload. thank you
