Title: HD12039
Post by: moodflow on December 09, 2008, 06:29:12 PM
An older image, but worth posting I guess. 

This is an older rock and cloud technique I've since abandoned.  The planets are TG2 planets with image maps "mapped" to them from what I remember.

The astronauts were post worked in from an image I found on flickr since I didn't have any astronaut models.  I waited to post it as I wanted to get the owner's permission (even though the astronauts are only about 5% of the image).  He still hasn't responded and I can't even remember who it was.  So I decided to go ahead and post it, as I am proud of how I was able to post work them in nearly seamlessly, despite different lighting and contrast conditions in the original.

If it pisses someone off, I'll remove the image!   ::) 

Anyway, hopefully this will spark some ideas for you all...since I use your posts to spark my ideas!

Those astronauts are really very well worked in there!!!

Great scene overall, I like the rock formations a lot.

Well done! :)
Why have you abandoned these cloud and rock techniques? Have you found better ways to do things? Looks good to me anyway ;)

Love the drama in this composition. And I like your imaginative use of T2.
