I haven't made a single classic space scene in 2011, even though I have my roots in space art. So here you go. ;-) The main motivation for this work was to practice angles and perspective and it took a lot longer than expected.

To complete this image I made use of several different techniques: While the station in the foreground is mainly painted with addition of a few textures ([link] and cgtextures.com), the resource for the people in it is stock photography ([link] [link] [link]). To render the planet and the spaceship the 3D functions of Photoshop came in handy. The ship model in the mid-planes is based on one of ~dmaland's renders ([link]) and edited with the usual addition of textures and effects. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for stopping by. :)

This is stunning beautiful - and thank you for providing your process as well! I used this as inspiration for my description of a digital information wall in a space station (with credit and a linkback) in my Mass Effect-related fanfic, here: [link]

So complex, and for my own personal reasons, it quite honestly gives me chills. I love it.
