Description

:bulletyellow: THANK YOU so much for my first DD! That was a nice surprise. :bulletyellow:


Thank you AFineWar for the suggestion, and alltheoriginalnames for the feature!
I very much appreciate it!


I usually make it a point to thank everyone individually, because I never take interest in my work - by anyone - for granted, but in this case it's just too much! Every single comment and :+fav: is truly appreciated though! It means a lot.
    

The beginning of colonization efforts somewhere at the outer rim of our known universe. The ship designs are based in part on real NASA concepts, just as the Helios colony vessel.

COMPOSITION: Textured environment (starfield) and digital painting (planets, nebulae), composed in Photoshop. My work. Scene and lighting setup in Lightwave with final composition of all elements in Photoshop (including all FX).

MESHED: Helios Colony Vessel & Ark Ship by Jason Tinsley, Heavy Shuttle & X33 Shuttle by Kenny Mitchell.

Original size: 4500x1600.

    

Comments and critique welcome.

Thank you very much to TreeClimber for the valuable WIP input and suggestions! :cuddle:

_hi overseer, [.. others ..!].

Firstly_
[and obviously;] a-lot of hard-work has gone into this piece of Work. this "Work of Art" has to be congratulated-upon for, its: busy Content [.. first of-all !] there is a lot Happening ..
one's Eye, is: .. Drawn [Picture-left, to Picture-right] by the Movement of the SpaceCrafts .. [i can see the SpaceCrafts' engine-Flames showing their Orientation. [i like that ...!].
also; there is good Originality with this Drawing, as-well ! and, the Drawing shows-off "overseer's" Connection he\she has with the Viewer .. with, an: easy Perspective, [.. relaxing for the Eye !] i particularly like the idea of Planets. ... seems to Work well, [in fact !] the Planets show-off a good command of Technique, here. there is a Calming quality to the-piece, and the tone of the four basic Colors used [Blacks, Whites, Blues, and Grays] are the correct-Ones, here [i think ..].
over-all, this picture: PACKS-A-PUNCH, for me. and, has created the lasting-Impression i thought it would; when i saw it, first time....!

.. A Very-Good Sell ! [.. Does What-It-Says On Can !]
