Earth-like Planet

I've been messing around with planet making on Paint.NET and this is the earth like planet that I created. It didn't take as long as the other space scape that I made, but it did take a bit of creativity. The inner atmosphere was the hardest part because I already put clouds in the planet itself, but I didn't know that it would affect how the atmosphere would look like so I had to make it a bit dimmer. The sun also took a bit of trial and error because it wouldn't come out how I wanted it to. I finally got it to work and added a moon just for the heck of it.
This might be it for a while unless my friend tells me that I have to make more. I might make more just for the fun of it because this is something new and I want to experiment with it!!!

    looks good! i didnt think about the atmosphere interfering with the clouds. try puting the clouds in a seperate layer, run shape 3d and move it to the same place as the planet. easiest way to do that is to move everything with the layer zoom thing. it keeps the same settings every time so you can move things to the exact place as eachother. great start!

Stone Head

Awesome artworks as always Julio! Here is something I am working on: The head was made in a program called: Sculptris, the stone texture was made in Paint.Net, and the moss was made in Photoshop (but I added it to the head in PDN). I still dont like the moss... I need to change something, and I still need to make a background. So this is still very much a WIP (work in progress), but I thought I would share it with you all.

Left Behind

Wow, I haven't posted here for a long time, and I started this blog too!!! That's sad, but oh well, never fear, here is one of my newest space scapes!! I made it for the SAC (Space Art Competition), and I got 3rd place! Not too bad for doing this for the first time!!! I really enjoyed this competition and I think that I've learned a lot from it!! Everything in the picture was made on Paint.NET except for the bigger ship. Pretty cool, and no, I didn't make the award, haha. I hope to get better and get first place on the next competition! I hope you liked the picture that I made as much as I enjoyed making it!! Feel free to comment as usual!

Fractal

We will miss you Julio! I have been working increasingly with Apophysis 7x, and this is my best attempt so far. It takes my computer for ever (about 5 hours) to render a single good quality fractal... The colors were heavily manipulated with Paint.Net.
