Wow, this is the first time i've submitted a wallpaper in months.

This was such a fun piece to make, it first started off with me just being bored out of my skull and seeing everyone else post this simplistic but stunning pieces of work. So i started working on the planets and kinda just added little bits here and there. But something was missing, and i decided that i needed a nebula in the background. And after seeing some of the most amazing brush effects from Sumopiggy, i decided to collab with him. Did all of the stunning scenery in the background, the brush strokes are so defined and detailed that i was blown away at the result. Though we did run into some color issues, he was man enough to smooth them out. So props to him on that. Thank you diny for allowing me to use your planet from our collab, sorry i forgot to mention it. I've not had internet access for over 4 days.

After he was done, i decided to add some extra features here and there, but i wont bore you with that. I just hope you guys enjoy this as much as we both do.

Thanks for watching, please comment, i'd like to see at least 1/2 if not 3/4 of my views actually commenting. I dont like seeing 3000 views and 40 comments lol.

Ejoy, FULLVIEW A MUST!

Edit:
Thanks vitamin-c for noticing the moons direction. Sumo did it, not me, but its changed now, thanks for noticing.

Wicked!! I love the colours and the overall composition of the piece works realy well!
The nebula looks like the effect you get when u dip a loaded paintbrush in a jar of water... the paint difuses into the water - likewise the nebula difuses into the surrounding space (hope you get what I'm on about! ;) )
Not too sure though about the shadow on the little moon (in front of the planet) to the far right of the pic. It looks a bit wrong compared to the other shadows.

Still, this wallpaper is very nice... Great work guys! :)

Very refined work... the nebula seems almost cartoony for some reason.

Yes the full view is a defiante must to see the full effect of the planet against the nebula streams.. I love the way the colours were smudged like that. Planet wise it looks pretty ok but the main planet texture does feel a little too bumpy for me. Still its a nice piece overall..
