Comment on In Memoriam by aRchAng3lZz
That's OK with me, if you're taking a bit of artistic license 
It's just that i see a lot of people doing that, and I have my suspicions that most don't realize it's impossible.
IMO there is no problem with realism and art mixing together (many of the best space artists -Bonestell, Garlick, Bergeron, Dixon to name a few- are very realistic).... to me there is nothing wrong with including a planet and nebula in the same image as long as the planet is realistically lit by a star (which doesn't have to be on screen either)
Anyway I apologize if my rant came off as negative or anything like that
just had to get that off my chest, keep up the great work

Yes, of course there is no problem with mixing art and realism but it just doesn't fit well into my head. I rarely like pieces like those. That is why I paint whatever my imagination brings into my head. I understand your need to get that off your chest and it didn't came negative.
