Description A blustered man stands planted and looks to the sky. Behind the glowing moon his mind pours fourth visions of radiating clouds, swirling with colour and promising new life to the stars growing within that will soon twinkle and illuminate their surroundings. Thick belts of asteroids and galaxies churn their way through the depths of space surrounded by magestic planets grasping onto their children while they hover suspended by forces unimaginable. Through all these fantasies the man is reminded of his own insignificance and wonders if ever he will escape the bonds holding him in his place.

Ive poured 2 weeks into this piece and its really nice to see it completed. It started with and idea that I threw into concept stages and carried right through to this finished product that I am really happy with. Working alot with my colour schematic, lighting and overall communicational theories and practices. No resources used...yes I did make the house -.- Used a huge amount of different programs and techniques...from photo maniping myself in to the piece to digitally painting the nebula to modelling the house...not much else to say but except I really hope you pick up the feel and enjoy as much as I do.


// Details

Programs:
Photoshop 7.0
3D Studio Max 4.0
Vue D'esprit 4 Pro
PhotoImpact 8
(My digital Cam..Oympus c-60)

Time Estimation:
30 hours

**edit** It seemed almost everyone took note of the compositional barriers produced by the 50% sized version I threw up...this is a vast project with many elements and at that size the composition appeared to "cluttered". Therefore this is a ~2/3s size and is quite a bit bigger. I think now the different elements can truly be appreciated (with alot of scrolling -.-) ..Id love to hear your feedback now!

**UPDATE** Prints now are now up on DA, as you can see I got myself a prints account finally, if any of you are interested and have any issues with prices feel more than welcome to mention them to me. Also thank you all for the heaps of comments you've left for me, all I can say is Im glad that you all enjoyed it so much, in the future feel free however to leave any critiques at all that you have, all it does is help me see what needs improving. Keep at it all and get all the expression and enjoyment out of art that it has to offer

I had a dream a few nights ago that I was walking round my town at night and it was normal; then someone handed me these special goggles and when I put them on it somehow cut through the atmosphere and I could see all the planets, stars and asteroids whizzing past earth (often narrowly missing it) really close to me; this picture is almost perfectly a snapshot from my dream......

....seriously, it's kind of weird! Beautiful, i'll order a print of this if I get myself together!

A truely beautiful piece of art.
It's amazing how you perfectly flow from the bottom of the picture with realistic setting, into an astrological image of the heavens.
Great work, hope to see more from you.

LOL i think i havce to say it's a little too large for me to enjoy!. On my settings, i scroll for quite a while to see top to bottom!. But i will say that the cottage is extrememly nicely done^^. of course the overall concept of looking up and seeing a sight like this has always fascinated me since i was a child!. Nice job.
