The feudal overlord had ruled this system with an iron fist of warships and battle garrisons.
His humble abode 'Ataraxia' hidden inside an ancient planet,
dotted with castles, fortifications and private parks,
sustained by the outer sun and the warmth of a hollow world,
guarded by a few legions of devoted fanatics.

The concept of you painting a picture thousands of pixels large is mindboggling at the least, but once again the concept of you using a mouse to do so is... almost impossible to comprehend. One could easily believe you were put on this earth solely to draw breathtaking pictures with your Mouse and Photoshop, that is, until one reads the equally beautiful descriptions that accompany each piece and discover the depth to your character and mind. Your creativity and talent are out of this world (perhaps part of the worlds that exist in your imagination?) and I find myself rushing through these comments just so I can move on to the next picture as soon as possible.

I love the way the middle line is almost like still water, one half could almost be a reflection of the other, it certainly adds to its fantastical atmosphere.

I'll try to push my eyes back into their sockets so they don't land on the ground when I click the "Next Picture" button...
