Here are some of my asteroid brushes that I use in just about every deviation that I need them! Use them as you like! lemme know how they turn out and FAV/COMMENT if you like them! I'll comment your deviation that you used these brushes if you leave me a comment on here linking me to it! enjoy!! :)

Compatible with photoshop 7+


_________________________________

IMPORTANT: HOW TO USE!

Ok, these brushes are set to be only ONE color at a time, but dont fret, it's amazingly easy to mimic the asteroids shown in the preview image! I set them to be one color so you can easily change the light/dark areas of your asteroid.

---> first things first, make sure you have some sort of light source.

---> make sure you have both of your color choices that you want for your asteroid (one dark and one light) I generally use white as my light color and a dark dark color (mostly black) as the dark shade, basically as the "shadow" of the asteroid

---> Now, lay your foundation, simply take the asteroid brush of your choice USING THE LIGHT COLOR and click a couple times (to remove blur and make the asteroid seem more solid) in the area that you want that you want it in.

---> now switch to the dark color (the shadow) and then match your dark color up with your light color and move it maybe one or two pixels away from the light source and click a couple times.

---> Go to filter > Sharpen IF NEEDED.

Oh I am already working on a new space scene, I'm new to them so until I can master all the nuances I need all the help I can get XD lol
(nice planets btw)

Oh trust me, space art is more difficult then most people think! It took me like 4-5 years before I made anything that I can consider decent by today's standards :-p

Good luck and keep practicing!

I found that out very fast XD lol
But the nice thing is that the possibilities are practically endless to what you can create/imagine.

Thank you! If I make another space piece I shall link it to PsCreated-Space, and give credit if I used anything, naturally :3
(Which I actually did, one of your planets with a few minor alterations such as lighting effect)
