Artist's Comments

So, since there were some changes in the rules of the wallpaper sci-fi contest ( [link] ), taenaron ( :icontaenaron: ) allowed us to eventually change our submissions and since my first piece called Aries ( [link] ) wasn't exactly a sci-fi (just a plain spacescape) I decided to use this opportunity to swap that piece for this one, called Monument. Yeah, it's quite 'overWOWed', but hey - you like it that way anyway :D .

In the wall-pack you'll find:
1024x768
1280x960
1440x900
1600x1000
1600x1200
1680x1050
1920x1200

Technical info:
PS CS2, 3DSMAX, Terragen, Mont Blanc panorama stock from [link] (It was manipulated into pieces - you probably won't recognize a thing.)

Space, planets, clouds and landscape done entirely in PS CS2.
10% of the ship and structures were made in 3D SMAX, then heavily adjusted in CS2.
Approxim. 50 hours of work.


Enjoy...

Given 2008-04-04

Talk about visual impact and think about space architecture, and Monument by ~JoeJesus could possibly be an artwork which brings imagination into life. 1st runner up in the Science Fiction Wallpaper contest (Featured by ^archanN)

the preview was (again :D ) sharpened - but I thing, that some of the wallpapers were sharpened too (the smaller ones - when diminished they got blurry). So, yup - it is a bit grainy... if this will be the only bigger problem, than I am satisfied :D . Thx for the comment.

"Yeah, it's quite 'overWOWed', but hey - you like it that way anyway"...Dont tell me what I like !!! lol. Just kidding, yeah, just like in the movies, many things are deliberately overdone compared to how they would look in real life...Its just more dynamic that way :wow: i think this one has a better chance of winning, buts I personally like the natural beauty of the other just a bit more.

You just like pink collors, that's all... :aww:

:D

lol - sure I'm kidding - I like Aries a LOT, but Sci-fi is more Sci-fi in Sci-fi contest (wow, that's a combo!).

What are you implying? :evileye: :paranoid:

Lol, but seriously, Purple has long been my fave colour. And I just think it suits space because its dark and mysterious and kinda futuristic in my eyes...But there are so few purple ( and pink ) space art here, so its like a rare treasure.
