Artist's Comments

///But you were dead a thousand times. Hopeless encounters successfully won. A man long dead. Grafted to machines your builders did not understand. You follow the path fitting into an infinite pattern. Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.
I know who you are.

You are destiny///

update of an old piece
I figure it's undergone enough change to warrant a seperate submission.

If you ask me, sometimes the wonders of the cosmos look awfully familiar to mixing milk and coffee! m a r a t h o n by ~TheNonSequitur is an exquisite scene that’s sure to wet some lips. (Suggested by `j4m3sb0nd and Featured by `halfliquid)

Very nice! I really like the lightsource in this one! May i ask how you made this?(painting, photomani, combination?) It looks grand. I really like how you created a dusty feel with the nebula clouds. I have aklways tried to get that effect, but i never got anything worthy :nod:. I also love your use of blacks. Awesome work all around dude. My only concern is the main planet. It seems to be just a bit to contrasty. That is a personal opinion though. Great work once again and keep it up, this is definitely worth a :fav: :nod:

Painted. And the dusty feel is created mostly using the smudge brush, but in order for it to really work well, you need to pay close attention to lighting gradients.

Very cool and interesting nebula style goin on here. Nice colour flow and nice bigger planet. One thing I find a little wierd is the place where the light is up in the middle. Something there looks smeared or something ;O.

Still great job :thumbsup:

Very good your best piece in a while. Lighting is effective and the gassy feel all over makes it seem all the more real. If you think you can be active enough I'd like you to join *TerraSpace

Everything is a touch bit too sharp. A little bit of color variation would be nice, but overall it's pwnage.

Gah! I love your stuff!
The depth and realism here is just so amazing! The sharpness of the image also does wonders! The lighting is perfect and the dark matter (blacks) just are so amazing!

I don't know what else to say!

It's not denial. I'm just selective about the reality I accept.
