Planet and Star tutorials
One of my favorite subjects when it comes to graphic art is space. Space represents the unknown, the bastion of the remaining mysteries of the universe. It presents you with endless creative opportunities. However, this also means that space art is difficult to effectively compose in a realistic, believable way. That is why I love these two tutorials. They teach you how to make stars and planets, the most fundamental objects in sci-fi art. You can easily apply what you learn here to other artistic endeavors as well. Neither tutorial is rocket science, but the one on stars can be a little challenging if you're inexperienced.
