Earth II

Here's something you don't see from me often, space art! Although I don't really mention it, I love space. It's so mysterious and alluring to me, and the idea of extrasolar planets really intrigues me. (extrasolar means things outside of our own solar system)

What I like about space art in general, is that anything is possible. What I have painted here could very well exist somewhere in a galaxy far, far away.

I used various reference for this, looking at the art of a variety of sci-fi artists. However, I didn't go planet-happy like some of them do. I believe there is beauty in simplicity.

This is the planet tutorial I used: [link] However, I did a few tricks of my own to get this Earth-like planet, rather than a random rocky one.

Enjoy!
