The Colony moon of Shepherd A leaving gravitational wake in the iridescent silica rings of the green Gas Dwarf it orbits.
The moon features an equatorial ring due to its presence in the rings. Silica dust has collected in various places, giving the moon's surface a coloured appearance.

The moon was hand-sculpted in blender with detail supplemented with Lunar elevation data.
Part of a long series of artworks I've been creating over 2023 with more to come! ❤
