Description
The stardust captured from the planetary nebula would provide enough energy for the mage's experiments for hundreds of millennia, even with the inevitable data loss during the analog to digital conversion process...
Mage posed in Poser 9, fractalworld light source created in Groboto 3, image constructed and rendered in Vue 11 Infinite, nebula and spiral galaxy images from NASA, added in Photoshop CS6.
Much better in full view (but still plenty of detail lost due to Renderosity's size restrictions...).
Thanks for looking and for any comments and/or critique.
[I could do with some of the mage's energy to get through my never-ending workload.]

Fantastic image! Wonderful lighting effect and POV. Spectacular work!
Wonderful picture here ... It's just perfect my friend!!!
I could use some of that energy too! Love the light effect,especially how the rays appear digitally pixelated on the left side of image,and the low POV over the water is very effective...great work Craig!
Excellent image, stunning effects !
Sigh. I'm such a rebel. I have always hated limits. 0o. Super job! ")
The benefit of nebula energy, of course, is that it isn't limited by planet-bound spell sources. It works even while crossing water, as you've so ably shown here. I believe your mage will find the energy source to be consistent, and impervious to everything but expansion and dissipation. Now as long as the container holds ... Excellent image! I love the mood.
Great work, very well done!
Gorgeous and magical scene here, splendid lighting, well done!
Excellent light effekt and a very mystical scene
Awesome image.
Fantastic lighting and effects. Great done image.
Excellent sci-fi render my friend, fabulous work.
Fabulous work, reminds on the song dont pay the fary man. Greately done!!!
Ok, now here you have a perfect example of your light. Amazing light. I'm not sure if the stardust is 'in' that orb---in the mage's hand---or if the orb the actual stardust itself (bigggg particles of dust, if that's the case!)---or what: But that orb is creating the most wonderful light throughout this image. And it's your light. I don't know how to describe it, but it's one of those lights that's 'you'. It cleaves the atmosphere beautifully, and casts an almost gold-leaf sheen over the piece. Beautifully done! And again, very fine detail hinted in the hill on the right, in the trees---one tree trunk quite bright and vivid---and in the oil-like feel to the water. Your ripples are like undulating oil-based plastic, they have the most visceral touchable feel to them. With reflections that seem like you just took a needle and swirled your way through the water. (The old swirl-patterned end-papers of old books---those swirl-aplenty patterned papers that people put in inner covers---were made by placing oil based inks or dyes on water, and swirling the dyes around until they made those patterns; then placing papers upon them. I've got some materials wrong here, I think, but the principle's there.) Beautiful, Craig! And the left background looks pixelated: I assume that's not degredation due to the 512KB RR limit, but rather a choice: Is that your way of representing analog to digital conversion? If so, bravo! A great little digital touch (or joke). And the boat swirls up with real grace, and the mage stands there covered in mystery... Delightful. And that light is something else---;ike liquid silk. A really delightful vision, Craig.
