Artist's Comments

Funny how I said under my last deviation "I'll post the next in a few days" for the first time, and yet also for the first time ever - I went over a month without submitting anything :lol: but hey, reasons beyond my control really ;p

Anyway, this was my second of two entries to The Luminarium's exhibit given the theme "dimensions". With such a theme, it's no surprise that space-related things were a popular choice, and mine were just that! The concept is clear, "stars" are represented as five-pointed objects in many cases, yet the real things are spheres of flaming gas, so I just mixed them together and got a star-shaped star :star:

P.S, it's in "surreal" rather than the sci-fi or space category because it's not a scientifically accurate concept, but rather something more imaginative and dreamlike.

It'd be funny if stars really did look like that. I could just imagine a man in an observatory pointing his telescope at that and frantically saying, "Ha! They really DO look like that!" :D

Not all homophobes are conservative, not all members of the GLBT community are liberal, and no one has the right to put someone down or insult them based on their views, regardless of which side they're on.

I knew it! I knew that's what stars really looked like :P
Anyway, I like those flickers of flames. And the shading on the planets really had a cold feeling to them.

It's how I imagined the stars in Super Mario 64 would REALLY look like.

I created those bits with the help of fractals :flame: but the rest is just normal Photoshop illustration.
