Description This started out as practice with clouds and lighting, hence the unrealistic dark matter formations. I think it's not so bad. What do you think?

The rings on the rightside planet seem too bright behind the planet, imho.

It's good except that the planets look a bit too sharp.

Very nice Nebula. I think so many planets really takes away from it though. Even more so with the pink one. My eyes wants to go there instead of view the piece. So many at a similar size, really throws off the depth as well.

You're right, I probably could done with just the ringed one in the top right... The planets were really just slapped on as an afterthought, to make it more interesting. I think that the next time I work on something I should focus on depth and composition, rather than detail. Thanks for the insight, every little bit helps

Wow, Such a sweet picture. I love the colouring it actually works, everything flows with everything in the picture. I love the detail in it as well. The big eruption thing (sorry if its not an eruption haha) is soo sick!! It looks amazing. I love this picture. What program did you use. Just Terragen?

AMAZING PICTURE!!!
love your work.

Actually, I didn't use terragen at all in this picture. Everything is Photoshop brushwork except for the planets, which I reused from older pieces. If you want to see something interesting from terragen, check my "Destrayer of Worlds" black hole picture. I made that black hole with terragen.
Thank you for the compliment, and thank you also for the fave and the watch!

The nebula is a little boring, put some more structure into it.
The gas planet and the rings are superb, but the left planet seems to be overblended.
The dark matter formations are ok, they should be a bit sharper.

Well, it's good but not outrageous .

As far as the 'dark matter' that is the best part of the pic, the rings on the planet (upper right one) AWESOME....

I like it. Except for the purple planet towards the lower right -- it just looks out of place to me.
