Artist's Comments

My inspiration was Wappenbund's song - Flammen. I am not really into describing things, especially not when it comes to describing them not in my native language.. I wanted to create tense atmosphere in the picture, to portray a dying world, consumed by a powerful, yet evaporating force. There aren't any particular details in the picture to attend to, it's the colors and the shapes that matter for me. I am not sure about the inner lightning of the planet; perhaps it should be sharper, but I like it calm and dejected.

I had help from [link] 's flame brushes

Comments and critiques are appreciated, just as always.

EDIT: Resized the planet to 75%, touched the lightning here and there and changed the shadowing slightly.

I allow the galaxy-club to submit this to their gallery.

Cool. First original fractal I've seen in a while.

If anything I'd set the opacity of the shadow to 90%, a tip I got awhile back and it really helps to give the texture of the planet the value it deserves. Other than that nice use of fractals though it gets a bit posterized on the inside edges of the atmosphere. Try developing more than just a planet, maybe an entire scene out of it or something

I might try to play with the shadows... but I am not really sure if it would work to involve some other "characters" to picture. The atmosphere is strained as hell, and I don't want to change that. :D But I will think and see if I can figure something out. ;) Thanks!
