heythere Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 This is my 11th PDN image, created using Ben R_R's Explosion Tutorial and my own method of creating a realistic sun. The combination of the two resulted in an explosion of the sun! I particularly like areas like the upper right corner where you could see the sun crumbling.

Code_Ember Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Great picture! I like the crumbling part. Although, when a star is dies, doesn't it shrinks into nothing or it creates a black hole depending on the size?

Crimson Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Yeah, but it blows up first. 8th grade science? :wink: Quote Create A Professional-Looking Product Advertisment Mockup flickr | Deviant Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heythere Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 Great picture! I like the crumbling part. Thanks a lot. The crumbling part was an accident by the way - but I loved it! Although, when a star is dies, doesn't it shrinks into nothing or it creates a black hole depending on the size? :idea: Some of them (small ones) explode. Large ones turn into black holes. And our sun grows and then shrinks. I guess I shouldn't call it the sun, but my original sun picture looked just like it. @Crimson: our sun doesn't blow up. And I AM in eighth grade!

-Expiration- Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 You're ALL wrong. *rubs hands together* Prepare to get schooled. When small to medium sized stars, such as our sun, run out of fuel, they near the end of their life. Then, the star rapidly cools and expands, turning into a Red Giant. After its fuel source is completely depleted, it gradually collapses on itself, turning into a white dwarf. Large stars, on the other hand, prefer to go out with a bang. At the end of their life, they implode, and create a HUGE explosion, or a supernova. After the supernova, all that is left is an incredibly small point of EXTREME density, heat, and pressure. This small point, can either be a black hole, or a neutron star. If it is a revolving neutron star, it is called a pulsar. [/geek] Nice pic, by the way. Your own sun technique isn't very visible, although that might just be me. Keep up the good work! Quote Call me expired. Please.

heythere Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 I agree, me too. (seriously) Quote 01010000 01100001 01101001 01101110 01110100 00101110 01001110 01000101 01010100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matoyak Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Haha, I remember that all from just this past school year. Wait, are you still in Jr high? Only reason I ask is that the last time I remember going over stars and suchlike was 6th grade (a while back for me...)and you beat me to the explanation. Anyways, pretty cool pic dude/dudette. I attempted something similar, but got distracted and came up with some acidic looking metal...o_O? I also got an umbrella! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matoyak Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Don't know about Expired, but I am still there. Still where? 6th grade? Anyways, how'd you do the texture? Clouds? And the crackling part, you don't have any idea what caused that? it's a pretty cool effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
