The idea was similar to looking out of a balcony over the ocean, only the ocean is space with a planet and several moons draped in front of a distant nebula. I hadn't done a sci-fi for a while and had a load of cool stock saved on my laptop. All done in Painter X with a little help from Photoshop 7, all with a intuos 3. Special thanks to Eyefeather-Stock for this great portrait, which apparantly hadn't been used yet. [link]
