Upcoming Deviation

Mkay,

I'm making this scene for a contest at dA and am hoping for the best!
Only thing is I've worked into this enough to get stuck and stall..
Like usual I get off to a flying start then just lose my ideas.

So, can you guys help me out with this - I need your opinions, ideas and just general whatever

!

(Don't take notice of the bottom left trees, forgot to kill it before I flattened it)

terraspace contest i'd presume...
as for ideas, add some small nebulae near the top... maybe some people on the landscape and a second planet/ moon for the planet w/ rings. looking great so far mark!

I like the piece, but for some reason, I don't really like the right side of the terrain. The rest of it is great though.

The thing he said to ignore, he forgot to take it out.

Looks great Maca, I just suggest blurring the trees maybe a little bit, and giving them a blue or like whitish-yellow filter. The brown kinda stands out.

Blast you Maca! I'll never give help to the enemy.

Jusy Kidding, it looks great, I really can't see anything I don't like about it.

I love the angle. It just makes me feel like I'm flying through the air. The planet texture does seem a little bit flat, but that's the only bad thing I see about it.

Thanks! Originally, this pic was completely different to what it is now.
It's gone through about four re-makes and every time I re-made it it always had trees/a rock formation blocking nearly all of the right side.
This time though it's on a difficult angle and would be harder to fit it in... But I do need something there..

gh0570fchurch - Yeah I'm having real trouble with making my planets actually look and feel like actual spherical planets..
That and shit load of other things is what I needa work on.

NSN711 - :p, thanks and yeah the main big clouds are one big stock. The rest of the smaller ones are lots of mixed stocks.

Thanks for the comments everyone!
Keep it flowing

Everything but the ground looks so real. Not that there is anything wrong with the ground, it just has a computerized look to it.
This is amazing maca, I love the light going through the clouds.

Yeah the terrain needs work.. Needs to be more realistic.
I need to block a lot of it out as well in my opinion.

Thanks though!

Could I have a link to the surface map you used?
