• Stars are pretty easy to make when they are far away. All you need is a white dot or maybe a little lens flare. Up close, however, they’re a little more complicated. Still, I wanted to give it a shot and you can see the result in “Stellar“, my latest upload. It can be found on the New Images page and in the Planetscapes gallery.

  I thought about adding more elements to this one, but in the end I decided the “simple look” made the best wallpaper. I think the biggest challenge was making a “realistic” looking star that didn’t blind you when you looked at it. Anyway, what do you think?

• Vue d’Esprit simply refuses to render a 1600 x 1200 version of “Overlord“. I’ll try again when they update their beta.
• Coming up next: a new cityscape. Stay tuned.
