Description After numerous requests, I have decided to make a tutorial on how I paint my Nebulae. I did my best to include every part of my process. I'm sure the thing is riddled with spelling and grammar errors. Just ignore those, there's a reason I'm an artist and not a writer.

I hope you all can learn something from this. It took quite sometime to get it done. If you have any questions or are unsure about anything, don't hestiate to ask me.

I've included my custom cloud smudge brush that I use in all my paintings

Oh my gosh, THANK YOU! I'm working on a fancomic set in a sci-fi universe, and I was not looking forward to having to recycle Hubble photos every time I got to a panel of space.

you are my hero of the day! Your work inspires me so much, thank you for this wonderful tutorial, I will start playing around to see what I can get out of it, though It'll never be as close to what you create. Please continue to make these pieces, it's like being able to stare into space without a telescope!

Somebody has post you work "as its own" on [link]
He did note note that you have create this wallpaper and he also removed you signature out of the wallpaper. I think you should know this. I have made a comment right under the stolen picture too.

You work is really good, keep on doing so!

RocCenere In reply to ??? [2013-05-03 00:02:46 +0000 UTC]

Also, learning a bit about nebulas helps you paint realistic ones as well. Darker areas are generally opaque to starlight, like the 'head' part of the Horsehead nebula; whereas the coloured parts are generally lit by large stars that have just been formed, the stellar winds ionise the gases of the nebula.

You nebula paintings are very lovely.
