Disaster! (1999)  This is a variation of an illustration done for the UK magazine Frontiers back in 1999. It was to illustrate (if I remember correctly) an article about the dangers of Shuttle missions. The ship was painted on screen, with a mouse, in Photoshop with no prior scanning. The planet is a Bryce sky which I inverted in Photoshop and added curvature to with the 3D transform tool.
