"I've been working on this poem
for 12 years...
There's a lot of expectation.
I don't wanna disappoint my fans...."
Roses are Red,
Violets are Blue,
Spectre is really great!

- Norther Winslow

I've been working on this piece for ages... but I think it was all worth it. The stars took so long, I had to make so many of them... I did a lot of digital painting in this one, as well as a ton of apophysis renders. This was a really intense and fragile piece to do and that's why it took so long. This is a very important piece for me especially since it will be a while until I submit anything )= I know it's sad but I'll be back soon I promise! I'm going through some major life changes right now and I'm moving back to the U.S.A in about 8 days, so getting this piece done was a miracle on its own.

My favorite part is probably the sword like thing jutting out the top, it was a lot of fun to draw. I also like the sparkly stars.

Here's the stats.
~ 24 hours, I know, I'm slow...
~ 500 layers
Programs used: Photoshop CS2, Apophysis
No tablet.

i think that this piece of space art is incredibly impact as the brightness of the nebula against the subtle shades of the dark background really to make for an interesting piece of great art work.

Good Points:
The detail within the Nebula is mind boggling, i've tried and failed many times to try and get that to work. Great work

The choice of colours is interesting. in all honesty i don't think that these colours occur naturally in space but i think that adds to the magic of the picture.

Bad Points:
I feel that there are too many "Large" stars in the piece. do some research on stellar phenomenon and you'll find that a nebula that is several lightyears in size only had a few stars in it.

Overall:
Overall i feel that this is simply amazing. i look forward to seeing more
