Trying new technique

[Jutland]

Been working on new ways of creating a nebula using special brushes and some photo elements like inverted clouds and sunsets/sunrises.

And it looks really awesome if you ask me!

Thanks, I don't get much time lately to do much drawing but when I do there's lots of ideas I'd like to try.

Hey that certainly does look cool. It is amazing at the kind of effects you can get when you use things in a different way than they were intended.

Wow, very nice, Jutland!

It looks great. But I would eliminate the lens flares.

Wow, that does look really awesome. I can kinda see what Tha Pig means, although I'm personally a sucker for lens flares, but I also wonder about the little line of light around the back of the planet. Makes it look a little... superimposed I think. I wonder if the back half should be completely dark?
Other than that, kick-ass picture

[Jutland]

Ah I think I see what you mean about the back side of the planet, didn't show up in the larger version. Might see about fixing and resubmitting.

[Jutland]

Ok tweaked the picture a bit, that line around the bottom of the planet didn't show up before until I flattened the image.

Awesome! And now that I see it without the lens flares, I agree that dropping them was definitely a good choice. Awesome pic
