This was a lot inspired by Terry Pratchett's A'tuin. I always loved the idea of turtles or whales drifting through space. :) Also my little brother asked me to draw a turtle, so I obliged. I might add a more..poetic description if and when I think of one xD

Background isn't as detailed as I might have wanted it to be, I left it in a painted style. Used some ref for the turtle and nebula-esque space.

Photoshop CS and about 2hours or so.

Wow, you paint space so beautifully! I love the colors of the turtle; they work so well against that space scene.
