update: added text, and a contrast layer. i pumped up the contrast alot and the scene came out so much more stunning!

hi guys, heres my i year deviant anniversary which i proudly call:

The Hieroglyphs

Every planet in the universe,
Whether: young or old, big or small, gaseous or rocky, hot or cold,
Has their own story to tell.
A story that tells of their birth, life and possibly death.
Each planet is unique; non are the same.
Each planet formed in a different place in our universe,
Thus all their stories are unique and different.
But, as they are the universe's children,
Their stories all have a common point.
They all tell a part of the universe's story.
And the point i am trying to make is that:
All Planets are The Hieroglyphs of the Universe!

didn't i tell you guys in my journal that it'll be worth the wait!

and yes i know there aren't any hot or cold planets in the image, but just go with it!

got the idea thursday night, started friday morning, finished saturday night, posted sunday morning!

i tried new techniques too:

-a colour layer over the image to help everything blend in!
-light rays! ooh!

-a vantage point closer to the planets rings too obtain higher perspective on the rings!
-angled my star brushes too! a major improvement from that bland other one!

-planet shadows onto the nebula!
-angled the gas giant from its rings, looks much better and interesting like that!;D
-and also, you may not notice it, but the stars aren't as numerous and random and large as some of my previous pieces. there more organised, clustered and neater!
