Description
My seccond attempt at a terraspace piece...I think I pulled it off, but dont judge too harshly...
Terragen took 40 mins and post processing ins PS took a single 15 hour session (with one hour sleep)...
Please comment & fav if you think its deserving...
---UPDATE---
Seeing a few people have asked I tought id run through how I made it.. I dont know how helpul it will be, just an account of the steps involved. *sorry is I miss anything*
(1) Played around in terragen for a few hours, using some DEM data of some canyon.
(2) Made the planet, which is a spherized rock texture with heavily modified difference clouds from PS above it... + some water..
(3) Went into Bryce and rendered a rock (the asteroid) & a fusion fire textured sphere (for the flames on the asteroid) ...
(4) With some cloudy brushes I made, painted the nebula and clouds above the terrain...
(5) Whacked it all together, adding stars (just high contrast PS noise) & lens flares, small gas clouds etc
(6) Added special effects, like the shock wave etc. (Shock wave is a sphere from bryce, volumetric texture, with changed perspective).
Hope that gives a rough idea.

Brilliantly done - the whole composition is absolutely stunning. I'm also totally impressed that you used real DEM data to make your terrain. I'd never even thought of doing that...! Superb!

Awesome stuff. The embers flying off the comet must have taken ages to perfect.

You pulled it off alright!
There are some great things like the sky and the land and some things that need some work like explosion and fire around meteors...
so right on man... right on!

Excellent! Love your meteor and lighting effects. My only crit is the terragen mountains, they don't match the background as well. With such a dominant sun/star in the background I think there could be a bit more rim lighting on the mountains, and they're a bit aliased, but that's minor, and certainly doesn't detract from the overall impact (heh) of the piece.
Top work.
