i wasnt quite happy with the first couple versions [while yeah, i still like 'em they just didnt quite feel "done". ever happen to you?]
so yeah. Kinda redid some things. I originally had the clouds as just a kind of gradient [didnt want to distract from superman too much] but it did end up looking kind of plain. so i went in and gave them a little form. tried giving the rest of the planet some kind of a water texture but it didnt end up working well here.
so yeah. i dropped the yellow light in the top right. ended up looking too green and eh. just didnt feel like it fit. so i dropped it. added some bright rim light to the right side. to really make him pop a little more. adjusted some of the contrast so the rendering gives him a little more form.
tweaked the space bkg a little bit. that one bright star by his head was distracting me too much so i ended up losing it
This version is superior, although they were all good. I like the focus being more on superman then the star behind him (despite how impressive the star was done.)

They'd all laugh at me if they knew what I was trying to do... to create a new strain of super-wine in a half an hour with a fraction of nature's resources and a FOOL for an assistant. "Bernard Black, he's mad," they'd say. "He's insane. He's dangerous."

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.

This news article features five deviants who took part in Comment Month through commenting on the deviations that were submitted.
Please give your time to this article and to write constructive comments so that you make a true difference to the artists featured here. Although not all may be underappreciated, their efforts deserve to be recognised and celebrated.
