The piece originally started with a piece named The Black Pearl started by ~ Slackmania; which was basically inspired by the film Pirates of the Caribbean and was a simple homemade orb made in some 3D program (was like half a year ago now) and a sunset scene made in Photoshop7.
~aeonart brought the piece to life with his meteor/comet antics and excellent brushing in Photohop7, giving a near effect of what you see now. The pair collaborated back and forth exchanging ideas on and off for months; and now its finished.
Was great working on this with you, +Fav 'cause i like how it turned out.
