Holy shizzle.
Fatal-mantis85's starry sky tutorial R0X0RZ. 8O
This was just gonna be a simple bg, like just a gradient sky and some cheap arse grass-brushed ground or something. But then I found this tutorial, and it REALLY made the picture.
Yeah, I wasn't feeling too happy before, but art therapy works wonders. >3 This was partially inspired by the song "One-Eighty by Summer" by Taking Back Sunday (which r0x0rz also

33), where the title comes from. Lyrics are here:

Strangely enough, this picture only took about 2 1/2-3 hours. o.o The sky is extremely easy to do - just go worship the tutorial at the link at the top of this desc.

I did the sky in about fifteen minutes, no joke.
Yeah, I think the shading/highlights on DW look a little halfassed, but whatever. Still pleased with the outcome of this pic. :]
