[russiacirus]

I LOVE YOU...... THX for this Tutorial

[zoitsudo]

OMG!!! That was amazing! thanks for your great work!!! :D

[FMdyn]

The guys ignores all composition guidelines, reason why the result looks boring, not the mention that a sun doesn't create such a light cone onto the main planet's surface

[PHOTOSHOPER3]

No Mistakes , Colours 100% from the first time , Speech 100%

are you human ?!

[spdfrkmr2]

Very Nice! I have always enjoyed your work! Thank you for the Tutorial!

[spazticwatermelon]

Thank you so much!

[JStout93]

I'm having trouble with the shape not going off canvas. When I do the inner glow it includes the bottom and side edges of the canvas.

[araa12]

@JStout93 exactly same thing happens to me. Did you sort it out?

[TpointI]

Dude very nice tutorial. Keep it up

[pollansuxs]

Great man! Really nice tutorial!

[6620960]

Where do you get those color numbers?

[Mystique1919]

SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!!

[TechFlashDesigns]

this is fucking awesome :D

[RenegadeManiac]

Alt/Option + click + drag to duplicate layers in the layer palette or alternatively, Cmd/Ctrl + J to duplicate selection (if nothing selected, just duplicates current layer) for those who didn't know.

[xXThegabeXx]

THANKS THATS IS WHAT IVE BEEN SEARCHING FOR A LONG TIME!

[BustAdd]

best tutorial i have seen! great man!

[TheAsUNation]

photoshop facebook page sent me :)

[poopyscoopy5]

When you say "FF" you sound like link taking damage in legend of zelda..

[mauve08]

how can you make a straight line with a brush? =D

[jothewizard]

@mauve08 Hold down the shift key while using the brush

[monkeybars101]

DO you ever go one worth1000?

You would be brilliant at it.

[SkyMaro]

Is there any difference in adding a layer mask and just inverse selection and clear?

[OmyKings]

Awesome... Thanks a lot

[vertigoandblastoise]

Overlay just makes everything white. help?

[TheFerrarifan18]

By far the best tutorial I have ever seen! I have learned sooo much from this. You kept it simple, you explained everything and didn't assume that we already knew how to do something. And you didn't sound rushed! Very nice job!!!

[bluemercure]

i have never being less than amazed by your tutorial

[charlieandjackXD]

SOPA has removed this comment due to SOPA being pointless and destructive

[DidyDoddie]

What is the name of the website he gets the textures from

[myos19]

i have a problem when i go use distort option i cant use it, is disabled why ? :P i do anything that you doing XDD

[IamTheJesusGuy]

and with the 200 pixel or so brush nothing is appearing when i use it

[IamTheJesusGuy]

how do u get rid of the black and white flashing line around the planet after u dont need it?

[snowofchaos]

Nice video m(_ _)m now I can try to create my own desktop bg

[stevenjohnbarr]

When i select the ellipse tool and draw on to my layer it doesnt create a mask like what yours looks like making this whole tutorial unworkable. I just have half a white circle on my layer how do i get the mask like you have?

[W0LFM1LF]

didnt think there were clouds in space haha

[mjdied50]

@W0LFM1LF it was a space dust not clouds

[mjdied50]

can you explain how yo start the 1st layer that has a color black

[TheUndertakerSaysRIP]

@mjdied50 because he already filled it with black....

[mjdied50]

@TheUndertakerSaysRIP the layer should be a layer 0 not 1 right?

[TheUndertakerSaysRIP]

@mjdied50 it's the first layer you should have....at the bottom

[194Anonymous]

Teach us how to create meteors please! :D

[fatpedro22]

I couldn't understand what you did at 5:32, could someone please explain me?

[BrieSuz18]

Wwwwoooowwwww

[hakushu123]

i'm so dumbfounded --

[hakushu123]

why there's no transfer here ?

[BeatEmAeon]

IceFlow, at 6:34 You ask us to use a horizontal shape. Couldn't we also use Lens Flares to add more effect?(:

[LinuksPro]

:( Im even to dumb to create the "star brush".

[eldukedrino]

when i try to tamper with the levels after adding the clouds filter .. the levels show up in a layer of their own for some reason which is not giving the affect ur showing at all

any ideas what i am doing wrong?

[Joaojplm]

very very very good.

[TheLesslon]

How do you move the shape after creating it? btw love your videos!

[TheDarknessArrives]

How do I open the Levels settings?

[poke396]

When you spherise, i can only click lenscorrection, and none of the other options. What do i do wrong?

[TheRealGeriBoss]

I used this tutorial to create a header for my website (geriboss atw hu), it's awesome =)

[MrYesman43]

I love how happy he sound ;D

[Torre1996y]

Why is Teens React to MLP in related videos?

[tatooed33]

You are a genius.

[xR1D1xful]

Howard I just bought my new iMac 27 inch. Considering that I am so thick how would by able to completely enlarge (Maximise) photoshop document.

[mophead99]

@xR1D1xful Press the F key. I literally just found out myself! :) haha

[xR1D1xful]

@mophead99

Lol THNX

[Neofist123]

He is nearly as good as "Der Gerät" ;)

[Hartjesz]

Very nice tutorial.

But you should give the creators of the Planet Texture some credit - Linking to their page or adding their name in the description or at the end of the video.

[IceflowStudios]

@Hartjesz All the links are include on the official post, on my website.

[Hartjesz]

@IceflowStudios Ah okay :) Didn't try to be rude or anything. Just saying that people appreciate to be mentioned if you use their creations :)

[OGYOSHI0007]

@IceflowStudios This is awesome. Please do more space scenes. Thanks.

[homersimpsons26]

is this the big project you where working on ?? :D

[Neeveck]

I'm watching this tutorial for the 4th time, I love it! I got different picture every time, I'm just trying new ways and other colors, and this is the best tut I've ever seen.

[MetamorphomisK]

O.O

[Neeveck]

Very good tutorial! Love it!

[filipassword]

good job :D

[gio0989]

what does clowds do outside the atmosphere.

other than that great job, respect!

[MrHorus42]

wupsi, u made a little mistake there at 3:21 u say: set the size to 7 BUT while zooming out u put a 0 behind it so the size is 70 dunno if thats a "narrator" mistake or a tippo but i like 70 better :D

btw best tut on earth <3

[Flairfive]

Amazing!

[Flairfive]

Amazing!

[DutchFightingForce]

What are the settings ?

[YoderVEVO]

[poop333x2]

why didn't you just add a lens flare? i used it on a space scene i made a while ago

[TotallyFlyTying]

Why, when I try to create the earth, does it stay in the same layer and not create a shapes bit at the side?

[vDexaa]

I Tried , and after 5 minutes gave up ... :P

[TheGuyInUrCloset]

This has got to be the single best photoshop tutorial on youtube...

[rayroe777]

Why are my stars not white? They are all yellow. >.<

[devanj1000]

where is the levels option for the clouds?

[nainhanif]

WOW!

[natal1711]

I am speechless! What an amazing tutorial! :-)

But keep in mind that the background stars near the planet, where there is more light, realisticly should be less visible than the stars in the darker areas.

[Krassus99]

@IceflowStudios: THIS is GREAT! Thank you soo much!!! Would be cool to see another try with more deep space like gtgraphics.de. Can you show just another one like that, please?

Thank you soo much!

[Picotee810]

Thanks....you are a genius!

[MrKoolmew]

Hi there, i've got a little problem.

I'm not finding the color selection when opening the layer style box while setting the linear dodge option as described at 2:29 (I'm working on photoshop CS5)

[kriz24maz]

very good!!!

[nileshwoosye]

wow awresome man... :D

[igoravellar]

Amazing

[royal69]

hey Howard, is there a way to remove or smooth out "noise" on parts of a photo?

[sweetsundayss]

You are amazing

[stuckUPstudios]

i cant access the distort function ??? why?

[stuckUPstudios]

@stuckUPstudios solved... i set the color mode to 16 bit; had to turn it into 8

[trancesensation23]

how would you add planets and stars such as this into photography of landscapes or portraiture?

[mediamonkey93]

@trancesensation23 same as this tutorial, you won't need the black background and work above your photograph layer. You then either want to lower the opacity of these layers, in some cases, or change their blending mode. This will help everything sink in to your original photograph.

Once your 'scene' has been created above your photograph you want to erase the parts that cover the foreground and you're done

[trancesensation23]

@mediamonkey93 wow thank you so much kind friend :)

[Dominic2oh9]

What is your ppi?

[FallingOctoberProd]

great tutorial and a beautiful outcome!

[ThatsWhatTheManWants]

You are jesus

[stienerrecliner]

Hey I love the vid, but can you follow this vid up with the creation of some interesting nebulae? Just more space effects :) great vid ur the best

[djAnakin]

Very nice!

[VitalNovikov]

Thank you Howard.

[MrKoolmew]

Brilliant !!!

[aajhetechocomel]

best... tutorial... ever! I've been looking for a good space tutorial, sir you just made my day :)

[richardamat]

nice tutorial dude! more power

[ThePepejovi]

Would it be possible for you to link to those textures?

[ALA602]

how can i move the shape while holding it like you did in 2:14?

[Aquavidify]

Hey, Amazing Tute, could you tell me what screen capture software you use? I like the zoom feature but my software doesn't seem to have that, Would really appreciate you telling!! Keep up the great work! Thanks.

[Aquavidify]

@Aquavidify Ok just figured out it's screenflow, is there a pc version of this? anybody?

[nikkislosinit]

Amazing tutorial!!! I MUST try this one! Thanks for the inspiration. :D

[tomaldo11]

Why can't stephen hawking explain the universe as simply as you do? Wouldn't it be so much easier if it was just brushes and layer styles?

[tolisBFMV]

How can someone dislike this tutorial...It's great...

[markever234]

Your techniques in this video have opened many doors into other areas besides celestial creations. Very good indeed!

[markever234]

Your techniques in this video have opened many doors into other areas besides celestial creations. Very good indeed!

[TheSplodeZone]

my selection with the sphere doesnt have the ants running on the grey area like yours.. just the bottom of the picture then it messes up the sphereize part

[MICKMICKMUFFIN]

@TheSplodeZone Same here. Howcome it selects the whole circle in his and not mine?

[crisco21c]

Random isn't random.. :)

[christrocker24]

this is the best tutorial that you've done in a long time, keep stuff like this coming!!

[iJoeyNL]

BOOM HEADSHOT!



[dragan38765]

This is awesome! But again, are we still waiting for a "Big project"?

[kriz24maz]

exellent!!!!!!!!



[durtX43]

WOW! How do you come up with those ideas to make that effect, it's just amazing.

[hazel7797]

I can never wait for you next tutorial . . . you are amazing! Thanks!

[faztclix]

Sweet, awesome wallpaper! Cheers Iceflows

[negee3]

Really nice tut! never thought such graphic were possible on ps. Thought only they do it in some 3d program.

[ivan97ism]

why is it when i use the ellipse tool it doesn't make a new layer mask.. anyone knows the answer?

[shobogatz]

awesome tutorial. thank you for sharing !!

[MrKevista]

This was so amazing

[mayrey1]

Awesomeness!!!

[BeatleFloydZeppelin]

Great tutorial! Before this I was using noise and levels adjustments to create starfields. Its a lot faster, but I can control the effect better with a custom brush. Thanks for the tip :D

[PureIce96]

I am using CS3 and I can't find "Transfer". Can you help me?

[capgre]

Another great tutorial! Thank you!

[SamIves85]

Amazing! Thanks for sharing :)

[jarikcbol]

Very nice tutorial. You'd enjoy the work and tutorials over at Solar Voyager.

[GRiiMYD]

wow

[zmrj3000]

awesome job! keep up the good work!

[sam9072000]

Amazing.......

[TalentkeyMedia]

Excellent tutorial! Thanks so much for sharing.

[IntenseSoldier]

No one has ever made my jaw drop, that was until I saw this video.

[hayk7]

Fukn goood tutorial dude! =)

[VictoryAsIAm]

Oh my god, this is so amazing. An underwhelming statement, I know, but my mind is just too blown right now to process anything.

[evalldas]

this is the most awesome photoshop tutorial ever, more like these if you got anything please

[BoyOfLol]

WHAT CAN YOU NOT DO WITH PHOTOSHOP MAN??

YOU'RE SO GOOD!!

[TheLizardLover]

I AM A HUGE SPACE NERD!!!

[liquidus2172]

adding some halo effect will be great, don't you think?!

[joejoefaqt]

I suck. I try to render the picture as best as possible but when I do, the image comes out darker and ugly looking than the original and loses a lot of the stars in the back as well. any tips for my n00b ass ?

[meatpuppet76]

nicely done 

[InXaNePSN]

When I tried using the brush for the stars, they follow a straight line unless I increase the brush size to around 20. Help?

[lhrules]

After watching this, I had to subscribe!

[kunal2045]

WOW!!! From a black image to a spectacular masterpiece! I must give this a go! Thanks! :D

[MrGeekGamer]

The star field always seems really dense when I try this. Any tips on why that might be?

[IceflowStudios]

@MrGeekGamer Increasing the Scattering and Spacing should spread the stars out more.

[aliniazgd]

WOW.

[hickslive]

nice work! never tryed any space art before, but i have been thinking about it,

[DragonBreath7575]

Have you ever considered doing anything with digital painting on photoshop? Or anything related?

[IceflowStudios]

@DragonBreath7575 Yep. I'm not the best fine artist, but I play to do something around digital painting eventually.

[AXNJXN1]

I'm just not sure if the word 'amazing' suffices here.... Is there a better word? 

[maej9700]

3 aliens dislike the earth :D

[imlike15]

Let me tell you, Howard. I'm not sure if I love you or your tutorials :)

[IceflowStudios]

@imlike15 Either one is fine. :)

[kjelll98]

this was absolutely epic :)

[sportyio3]

i think its easier to just use the noise filter then Levels to tone it down to make the stars but your the expert not me.

[IceflowStudios]

@sportyio3 It might be, but I'm a big fan of using custom brushes.

[gzila57]

More like this!!!

[Smennyboy]

Yet another fantastic tutorial, thanks a lot ! :)

[wartornpanda]

Mr. IceflowStudios

@ 2:40, you say e2e7ff for your baby blue color. You actually enter in 62e7ff.

Thumbs up so he can see and add an annotation to correct the video. =)
