Timelapse

There's no story written for this. I wanted to do a cosmic apocalypse but without resorting to slapping on eyes and tentacles. The golden kingdom promises the seekers eternal ecstasy, but the seekers' understanding of its meaning may be different from what really awaits.

Here's an alternative version where the title is a little too much fun. Maybe works better as the poster for the Netflix adaptation.

Here's another version where graphic design is my passion.

@Reo Thank you. I do need to pay more attention to composition.

@rogue_frog it was very tempting; stare at it long enough and everything starts to look like eyes and tentacles.

Agreed, good restraint. I do think the size of the text is competing with the sky a bit. Makes it lose some of the vastness implied in your full piece. But a lovely entry!

Very nice restraint, avoiding slapping on those eyes and tentacles hahaha

I like that the lines on the second one make it more ominous, as if you get caught in a net :)
