Kinda boring subject I know, but I felt like doing something different from the usual. Just some spacey stuffs.

Looks nice and it's certainly different.

How did you do it?

I saw the words 'Jezebel' with 'playing around' and I felt obligated to investigate!

Wow, showing my age here, this reminds of a really really old game that was out on Spectrum, C64, Amiga etc. called Captain Blood or something. You had this huge galactic map & stuff, looks just like it.

Very cool! (unlike people who remember computer games from '88)

Fantastic colors, Jez! and I love the "textured" look. Your custom brushes rulez!?

Wow. Just a few of years ago, I would've thought such an image couldn't be done with digital painting techniques. It really hits home just how advanced digital painting tools have become.

Good job, Jez!

Thanks everyone, glad you all seem to like it

For those that want to know how I did this, it was really just the work of custom brushes I made as I went along. I start out with a pretty vague background to lay out the colors and where the brighter areas will be. Then in a new window I start making bits and pieces of "star patterns" to brush onto the image. I made one layer of stars, duplicated it and flipped it to make it more dense. For the bright areas I just went in with an almost white textured brush and made tiny splatters.

Thanks again
