[rehtorical question]If you are good with photoshop, tell me, how the hell would you make this?[/rehtorical question]

this guy is amazing. He claims to make all his stuff in photoshop, but I don’t believe him. If you do have an idea on how to create anything like his work, please, tell me.

lens flare and a plugin called glare by flaming pear…oh yeah you need a solar system image…and I can do it in like 5 mins. If you were talking about creating the whole image from scratch then…

wait flaming pear has a plug in called constellation that can make planets instantly… so 7 mins…give or take minutes

I believe that it’s all PS, a lot of it is really obvious like the len flares.

Here are some tutorials on how to create planets.
