All The Right Dreams V

Description

Version 1
So, this is the result of a long boring Sunday afternoon.

My intention was to create a rainbow nebula, and as usual things got out of hand, with me being bored enough to be anal about the smallest details... but I guess, for a good piece of art you have to... even the title - I'm particularly proud of the title for some reason; that's probably because most of mine suck haha

Top Planet = [link]

Wanted to put planet rings, but didn't look good in the end, the main focus/practice for me was the nebula making.

It's an 85mb, 3000x1280 psd file, couldn't be bothered to count the layers haha

Enjoy =D

EDIT - Version 2

A hell of an addition to the bottom:

After two weeks of toil I present to you:

Vehemens Angelus (Furious Angel in Latin)

This piece took more than 50 hours to complete, the gas giant alone took 11 hours to make and its a 5000x5000 306MB file on its own.

Each of the individual moons took an hour to make - they're around 20MB 2000x2000 psd files each.

My biggest issue was with the planet ring, getting the lighting right on the rocks was a complete and utter bitch, but so far I'm satisfied with it. And that took up a large chunk of time in itself.

EDIT - Version 3

Well here it is, after some very useful criticism I've decided to make my (hopefully last) revision of this piece - it's one of my favorites and I want it to be as good as can be - this update doesn't contain any major compositional changes - but I completely redid the planet ring and lighting on the gas giant - that's around 6000 rocks that you can see :)

Version 4

I've completely revamped the planet ring as that's whats had the most criticism, I increased the amount of rocks from around 6000 to 53,326. Hopefully this ring looks more realistic I do plan to make more changes, but for now, here's Version 4 of AllTheRightDreams

Version 5
Did some compositional and colour changes at the bottom - also removed some of the moons - felt like there was too much clutter towards the bottom. Also changed some of the lighting on the top planet, so nothing major, realy just cleaning up... :)

Random Info:

Time spent: ~70hrs
960MB
Fullsize: 1600x6000
Photoshop CS2 and CS3 (this piece has migrated between computers)
Vue 6 Infinite - 53,326 rocks
Apophysis - Nebulae
Topaz Vivacity - For clean, noiseless apophysis nebulae ^.^
In total, between all the psd's involved in making this theres at least 350 layers O.o, good thing they're seperate files, because it would be hell to open and save a psd that's almost a gig.
