Artist's Comments

An unknown and unnamed planet which has been around for millennia’s until a violent war between two races which allows it to be discovered and used as a strong hold for a military base. An ancient device orbits this planet which is capable of destroying all living matter in the galaxy and it’s on its last orbit before activation.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok so I am very please with this one due to the fact I used a completely different technique which I think is far better then my original.

This took about 20 hours plus, using various software’s and techniques.

Comments and favourites are always welcome

(Yes I know it’s from halo :))

HALO YES

I mean, ah, this is very nicely composed. I love the colors you used, and everything has a good proportion to it. Well done. ;3

I love the subtle colors here, somehow it gives the piece that dazzle that I love about space. The story is great too ;)

Nice work
