Well, being in Lum with some best space artists is itchy you know? Especially I actually drew alots of planets and space and intergalactic things in my childhood (with painter application in Windows 3.1, what a pain in ass).

So, on my way for the EVE contest, I think I must remember how much I love those stars, and this is my very very first space art, with half of hours scanning through starfield and planet tutorials and 3 hours actual painting with PS, hope it's not so bad.

It will be the background for my ship design, the story is a about a system with 2 suns and when they line up, they look like a water drop and burn the main barren planet to the point of uninhabitable, the only colony of system is nearby moon, on the dark face.

This is also a gift for sweetgirl meo meo Linh

hey, this is pretty cool! I like the colours (again, you're pretty good at them :) ), the lighting effects + the big planet, good work on that! :)

what's bothering me a bit, though, are the starfield, which is a bit too crowded and uniform and the smaller planet.
Now don't get me wrong, I like the texture and the planet itself. However its position is a bit unlucky as the sense of depth is a bit confusing to me; right now I'm not quite sure if it's further away or if its closer to us than the big planet upfront.

overall, it's a very solid work, and quite amazing considering this is your first space art! :thumbsup: :)

Thank you, look like I'm trying to do concept art, speedpainting, matte painting, space art at the same time, so GREEDY!!!

Incredible and really colorful! Nice story too!
I'm a person who likes to critique though, so: though the city layout on the moon looks beautiful - it kind of looks like it's only a single city (as if seeing it from an airplane, and not from space). If that's exactly what you wanted because the moon is super small, then I bow down to your greatness. But if you wanted it to look like a moon with a massive city surface (i.e. Coruscant), you might want to use a slightly different technique to draw the city. But it looks AMAZING - I'm just being nit-picky.

I'm hypocritical though. I always tell others to never criticize anything they can't do better themselves, but here I am, doing exactly what I tell others not to do...

Haha Lum can do that XD.

Not bad for a first space piece, probably a tad unrealistic, but I kinda like it :)
