Too Many Planets (or: Pluto's Revenge)



This image depicts a group of former planets invading a subterranean city. The planets are disgruntled at being downgraded from "planet" to "celestial object" and have decided to take revenge on the offending astronomers.

In this, my first Maya rendering, I experiment with depth of field and weight or weightlessness. While I admit that this image is the result of pure noodling, I am pleased with the ominous feeling that the tunnel creates and with the gradient apparent in the groupings of planets.
