    Really nice work wartistic!!

    The earth and moon look awesome! The trail behind the comet is a little weak though - Maybe like a fire trail would be better...?

    Nice work! - Especcially considering you havn't done something new for a whole year!

    yeah the tail needs lots more work. but onfire? no it will suggest it has entered a atmosphere wich it doesnt. i should work more on the gas issue. in outerspace it only rejects gas and dust.

    thx for the c&c i also need idea's for a fitting title.

    Thing I noticed the most was the atmosphere on the earth is..well, not there

    The background looks a bit stretched, and I agree with padiq, the trail does need work, but not on fire...lol...

    I applaud your 3d skills tho...wish i had some

    dont hasitate .start learning the sooner you learn the better.
    The learning curve can be a hard one. but dont let it scare you.
    I started out with wings3d & blender3d both are free to download.

    and btw this is nothing fancy, basic sphere shapes with multiple texures applied.
    about the atmosphere yeah your righti had one but it looks cheap and crap so i removed it.

    thx for the critics update will follow soon.

    I think I love everything, except the earth. The lightings/colourings looks out of scene, either that or the earth takes too much attention.

    Overall its nice work! Welcome back Tiono!

    I love the typography work, think it really works for this image.

    Both @ 300 Res

    I think it would look cool without the earth and moon.
