Cold Summer


No story behind this one. I just wanted to try my hand at painting an atmosphere.

This is supposed to be Pluto and its moons some time around perihelion (closest approach to the Sun.). In ascending order, you have Pluto itself, Charon, Hydra, and finally Nix. Coincidentally, this is the warmest period in Pluto's year and bits of ices on its surface sublimate into a thin atmosphere.
