In my humble opinion This is Art at it's finest, with intricate ornaments and dull monochrome colours...it's just so thought provoking and beautiful *_*

Wait... and then you have weak shades of purple, blue, red, and green in the background. Whaaat. There's even a tiny portion of dull yellow near the center. And then you used light orange to inscribe all those fascinating alien characters, which most people will instinctively assume is gold colored. I see what you did there.

What goes through your mind when you prepare backgrounds? Do you do backgrounds before foregrounds or vice versa?

It's mostly luck. I had a color scheme in mind here, but then I'll take textures from cg-textures or my own photos, overlay/soft color, and then erase and erase. I then merge the layers, pick out shapes I like in the textures, and then paint over it again until basically the textures disappear.

As for the light orange and gold, I didn't really mean to do that, I think. I'll pick colors pretty casually. I think after a while you figure what looks good and you'll repeat things you like--I like gold/orange over dark colors.

You have an interesting contrast of reddish grey shadowing going on there. Mostly white and grey in this one, what kind of shading is that technically called, "monochromatic"? Anyway, I like your quote in the description. It makes me think of the Guardian Angel from Borderlands 2 and her actions.

WowZah! this is fantastic! Daminit, I hate and ...er, love digital works, but I'm never sure how much credit to give to the artist and how much to the late Steve Jobs.
