Description

To see the whole story of my art collection, please check out my Journal "My Science Fiction Story for my Art Collection." [link]

Spent roughly 30 hours on this piece, the planet took 5-8 hours, (spent most of the time trying to figure it out)
Photoshop CS 6
I have to use PNG because it is absolutely the highest quality you can get, JPG at quality 12 maximum does not even compare. If you want to download this image, it will probably take a bit depending on your computer, mines took 31 seconds to upload.

Use grunge brushes btw for seascapes.

Welcome to the many moons of Sunatta Moon System, but you came on a rather stormy but clearing day. The time of day is mid night, however it may not appear as due to the large looming Gas Giant in the distant.

Scientific concept; scene of what an Earth sized moon may look like orbiting a gas giant within the Habitable Zone. Because the gas planet would be within this zone, there would likely be a high amount of water vapor in the atmosphere, clouds would most likely be white rather than the pastel colors as portrayed on Jupiter, and Saturn.

The seas are green-blue due to the high level of algae and bacteria in the oceans.

Weather forecast; 75% chance of rain, thunder storms but clearing through the night. 67 degree lows 74 degree highs, 96% humidity. Half Planet.

I LOVE this work. I'm not crazy about the planet behind it, but it's your style. The sea is great.

My name is Gabriele Totaro, I wanted to ask you if you also do commissioned work? I warn right away that it is very complex. So many elements, depth of field, perspective.

Please answer me also to say no, thank you
