very good, the stars are a bit clustered and a little large, and the moon is a little too bright for my taste, but otherwise it looks great. a very good job.

Any more comments ? lol

:huh:

CC!

wow, that's awesome! any chance you'd teach me how to re-create that? or something like it?

nope, im afraid not. already got 2 people to personally teach via teh msn.


meh.
i made the water, sun, the sky with terragen and added the stars and some other postwork in photoshop.

:mellow: :huh:

the stars btw, i went last night around 7 pm out, and took a photo of the sky, and put it on there.

it took a while messing with the cameras settings because it first turned out plain black.

That looks real nice man. The starscape is really nice, because it's real. It doesn't look brushed on like a lot of people do, because most people go overboard and put too many. This is a nice, simple piece. I like it.

yeah, thats exactly what i figured on the second version.

i still think theres something to improve.
comment away people.

i dont like the text to much and the water looks a little to fake but other than that it looks good.

ehh the whole thing looks really pixelated and imo boring.
the text is random and doesnt flow well with the piece

taking a picture of actual stars was a good idea, but i still think brushing them on would look better if you did it right. just my 2 cents
