Final

Changes

I decided that the constant changing of color was a hindrance and made the piece look ugly so I went back and made everything share a palette to make the piece blend in more together and not be an eye sore whilst watching it.


I feel this gives the piece a more polished and more visually pleasing look, I have gone for blue/violet throughout as I feel this color is a very diverse color and is pleasing on the eye.

Final draft

Background images into composition

Second draft

Background images for sting

I decided to make some background images for the Sky Arts Sting to add some dynamism to the piece.

I made this using lens flares of varying sizes and opacity to give off the illusion of depth.. I used grain noise to make far off stars on the horizon and in the nebula and to make the nebula I wanted it to seem randomized so I made a cloud texture and colored it in with a rainbow gradient.
