Ahmed

I must say, that this is quite impressive digital work. I used to have no comment on digital art. You may have changed my mind here today. The program you are using seems to be somewhat advanced over Photoshop.

Imagine if Stanley Kubrick's artists had digital computer art for 2001: A Space Odyssey. The movie might have turned out quite differently- 2010 later produced used some early computer generated art to image Jupiter. As many know, the story was to originally venture to Saturn. The artists could not make a realistic Saturn image which Kubrick rejected, so Arthur C. Clarke rewrote the story to Jupiter as it was easier to create a believable image of Jupiter. For those younger interested artists, see the movie scene where they fly near Jupiter. Keep in mind that this is not the digital age but during the making of the film in 1965 ~ 1968. (See the book: The Making of 2001.) Everything was hand created art. With the exception of Douglas Trumble’s slit-scan photography machinery to produce the psychedelic images in the star-gate sequence.

Ahmed, I think the science fiction or [science reality] movie industry could use your talents! I look forward to your next work.

Best regards,
Mark
