Trancendence II

A dust particle, drifting through the vast depths of space, nothing more. The mere existance: nothing more than a small shift on an infinite scale.
However, discovering new worlds is what we are striving for, creating habitable environments and basking in the glory of fame. Like a web, society spreads to foreign places, ultimately covering anything our eyes can see, our hands can feel. It is our goal to reach new heights, to surpass anything else: Transcendence.


Decided to revamp another old piece. The basic concept stayed the same (again): 7 planets and a nebula that stretches accross. I basically wanted to see how much I have improved in creating spacescapes over the past three years, so I took the image I loved most back then (because it was, when I created it, the absolute limit of my skills).

Haha, well, I guess it's a little more refined than the older version
Big thanks to the guys at the SpaceArt-chat and especially ~NeverSurrender77 for their input!

Also, a wallpaper-pack!

You know the drill: you download --> you fav. Keeps me motivated, you know?

Enjoy!
