Its been about 4 years since I started, phoenix then dragon, but last fall I started again with the background. I can only book Sundays with my artist so it has taken a while since he books up fast. First picture is better, but before the two most recent sessions for coloring the galaxy and starting Hubble.
Its been a bit complicated to say the least, especially since I didn’t plan on a full back from the start. Opinions are appreciated, might give me ideas to make it better as we continue.
The leopard print area you are talking about is the start of a nebula:
The easiest way to explain the background is that it represents the cycle of life on a cosmic scale. Eventually when its done it will have forms of all of the the stages of life:
Birth: the nebula
Life: the landscape, invader Zim in his voot cruiser eventually, and the hubble because its awesome and it took the reference pictures
Death: a dying star eventually (well not dying, we don’t want to see a good picture of a dying star so I’m using this one of a gas cloud)
And for bonus points you can easily compare the traditional phoenix story of rebirth from ashes to the birth of a nebula and subsequent solar systems from the ashes of a star when it explodes.
