An exploration trip to the Trappist-1 system for further investigation of the seven planets that are orbiting a red dwarf star, 40 lightyears away from Earth.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing this.
Can be a little pedantic, here? Since a faraway star/sun seems visually small, people don't realise that it's not like a light bulb (point source of light). The star is millions of times bigger than the planets. So, it's actually a source of parallel rays of light (like the Sun). The light on the extreme left or right of our field of view is not radiating outward from the point source we perceive. It continues to be parallel.
Light from a tiny source vs a big object is like this: o < O
Light from a huge source vs a small object is like this: O > o
It's one of the ways you can use to decide if the moon landing photos were faked -- are all the shadows parallel or do they radiate? [They weren't faked].
Hope this helps in developing future, [even more] awesome artwork.

Spent the last hour writing a comment lavishing praise upon and trying to find something constructive to say about every pore in the blasted landscape, but my mobile broadband hiccuped and ate it.
I'm hopeful our descendants just might one day have the privilege of exploring our neighbouring stars - but for the time being communicating between two parts of Europe is enough of a capricious endeavour.
So before I drop offline again, will just say splendid work.

Did you use morel mushrooms (morchella elata, or others) as the texture for your rocks? I love it either way!
Daaaang this is gorgeous!
Makes me want to take another stab at a digipaint of a hypothetical Trappist-1 landscape. I did a pass a year ago, but I messed up the planetary crescents and the colors went a little too over-the-top.
Your choice of reds and grays really make this work as a scene on a planet orbiting the ultra-cool dwarf. And I love how you worked with the projection that the system's other planets would be huge in the sky.

nice soft orange toned light, it really stands out well against the shadows...the little blue light on the explorers is a nice touch...good work on the orange light touching elsewhere is your image such as the cave opening...regards....David
Very nice rendition of the system. It would be nice if the planets were as close to each other in real life as you depicted here.

Its amazing the contrast of the shadows and the light of the sun through the planets reflecting over them. I also adore the details you givthey are wearing. e the art that makes it look even more realistic in this case the spaceship on the background and the spacesuits.
Amazing work keep it up.
