New Eden

New Eden. . .

The phrase in itself promises a new place, a haven of sorts, offering an abundance of resources to all, though categorized in itself differently to every single person.

One as love,
One as hope,
One as life,
And one,
As a new calm before a storm to another catastrophic ending.

Technical Information:
Planets: Terragen 2
Everything else: Photoshop CS4
Coffee, lots of it!

*Note: No stock material was used in this piece, all brushes were custom made.*

Extra:
Well I spent a good two days on this of nonstop work. Though I very happy in how it came out, my very first space scene, a lot of things I wanted to add into that photo since it was my first, but I decided to try and keep it simple. I learned a lot of things from working on this piece and discovering new techniques and ways to operating in and around Photoshop CS4 and Terragen 2. I'm incredibly happy with this.

I have to say, my inspiration to begin space work was when I was a little kid, the stars were so elusive when I was younger, and still are. Space in itself full of so many mystery and in itself a masterpiece of beautifully illustrated work. Being a big science nerd and history nerd, with the combination for art and poetry just hurdled me onward. And for ages Ive been dreaming of doing works like many of the artists here on Deviantart, and I'm finally beginning to realize that dream of mine. Who new the current economy and school status would allow me to absorb myself into works like this and many more soon to follow.

I hope you all like it, and I especially would LOVE some feedback! Comments or critiques! Especially since I want to learn what I should and should not do in future works!

Project Sol

Sun Jul 26, 2009, 6:29 PM
  • Mood: Joy
  • Listening to: To the winds of the barren lands
  • Reading: The writings of the past
  • Watching: The clouds of the society
  • Playing: The strings of my heart
  • Eating: Complexity of the future
  • Drinking: Simplicity of life
So upon the completion of a few renders and a complete piece of New Eden, I decided I will make myself more geared to making more and better pictures of space. A wonderful mystery to me and yet its like a dream that whisks away from everyday life. So this is the beginning of my project. Combining all the skills I have now, including web designing, I will start work on a art project that should take up my entirety of life, as I was amazed at how happy and how diligently i worked on that piece, and of how much I learned from it. More details will follow but the first step?

I need to get myself Premium Membership to DeviantArt, then I will update my journal again to detail what I plan on doing, and launching my own sister site to host all the images and possibly tutorials in the future with a guestbook and commenting abilities if you want to follow me through out this new journey I set myself for, and I hope that I will meet many new people and discover many new things.

Have a great day everyone =D Because I know I am!
