This cosmic design was based loosely on a piece by artist James White called "Protostar Cosmique." I was fascinated how he combined some really nice elements to create a protostar nebula in space. I've attempted nebulas in the past with relative success but I've always felt that the stardust never gave me the look I wanted. In this piece I used a different technique and the look I got was much closer to what I wanted. White's original piece reminded me a lot of Battlestar Galactica which is a favorite show of mine. The flares looked like ships that were jumping away. Because of that, I decided to add a Viper and name this piece "First Exodus" which might mean something to other fans of the show.
