The last Fairy taleby =2Look-s

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Space Art

An ancient story...
... goes along with this mysterious part of the Orin galaxy. An ancient...strange story. It is written there exists a charming star system somewhere out there. Lands, stars and planets rising up thanks to a magical ligthning radiating from enchanting nebulaes. The world there is rich in animals, water...and natural resources- especially in very rare ones. That's why many space explorers've made a lot of effort to find it in order to deplete the nature and eventually destroy it. Fortunatelly it is almost imposibble o find it without any linkers and all the linkers have been lost... except one- A very small piece of paper where is written: "only those with pure heart will manage to survive..." the rest of the linker is lost forever. But hey, look at the ship ! After so many years... someone manage to arrive to this forgotten area ! Wish them good luck...and magical times

Just what exactly is it about space that just interests us so? Could it be the fact that we've haven't even seen anywhere near 1% percent of what is exactly out there? Or is it that the concept of heading out into the infinitely unknown, the "final frontier" as it were, would be one of the greatest joys anyone of us could ever imagine. The Last Fairy tale may be a picture, but its more than enough to get me into space if I could.

If there's one thing that catches your eye off the bat are the amazing shades of blue and red in the nebula clouds hanging over the atmosphere around the spacescape. It all gives off a dream-like feeling as if you yourself is just drifting away through space without a single care or regret. The space ship leisurely cruises through the system; studying every last detail of this beautiful scene. The planets carry a great use of detail and texture and greatly resemble actual planets. The stars are just right, not too many as to overpower the rest of the pieces and just enough to deliver that silent ambiance that we all associate with outer space.

Lighting usage on the planets are also worth a mention. The planets reflect light from the nebulae clouds and really give the planetary system here a sense of isolated beauty, like a breathtaking underground cave that can only be found with a long and toiling search.

As many answers that there are out there, one thing is for sure: The Last Fairy tale by *lukas-Z-walker makes the unknown that much more inviting for the intergalactic traveler in all of us. A truly inspired creation that is definitely worth a look, or two. Great work.
