"A polandball artwork I made, no reuploading without permission (I can image search to find plagarism fyi). I just made this for fun so don't mind the creative liberties taken :). It's meant to reflect that lonely feeling and solidarity you feel while exploring the galaxy, exploring aimlessly into unknown territory. The original pic was taken in a journey between the Omega and Eagle nebulae, Original location (1st landable around the Y brown dwarf (body A2a) ) Gria Drye AA-A H19. the link is https://www.edsm.net/en/system/bodies/id/915292/name/Gria+Drye+AA-A+h19 (oh and im not CMDR Heronymus, I'm CMDR Noobqueen and just passed through this system on my way to Colonia for the first time, I had to be saved by a fuel rat here and it was an important waypoint in my journey to become a true explorer. I'm not at Elite yet in exploration but am 1 rank below, cant wait to get the elite decal and patch.

This is my own work, made it with MS paint if you want to know how. Anti-aliasing is used. Please credit me (and link to the original steam post) if you were inspired. If you want to reupload, please message me via my profile and we'll talk.

Image size is 1000x500, wanted it neat even though that's not my resolution playing.

List of Elite references (from top to bottom):
1.A normal nebula in the background (the eagle nebula, was out of the original screenshot but it should look like that based on where it was located)
2.A Y class brown dwarf (the original system had 3 black holes and 2 brown dwarf stars, only one is visible in both the original screenshot and the artwork).
3.The Andromeda galaxy (I just wanted to include this even though it wasnt in the original and here its super duper bright.)
4.The milky way, cause its obligatory and also super bright, in the image it was based off it's shifted really far to the left as something needs to occupy that central space.
5. A black hole, this black hole was drawn far closer than the image it was based off (screenshot: 100kls, art: about mm or less) for flair.
6. M33, or Triangulum. M33 is a nice spiral galaxy I drew close to andromeda.
7. A space plant, this space plant specifically was based off the "Teal Fonticulua Campestris". I know these are found exclusively on ice worlds (and this is supposed to be a rocky one) but Artists can do stuff out of the box :P.
8. Polandball wearing an attempted Artemis suit. I would've drawn it holding a genetic sampler but it's pretty complicated for paint.
9. A bacterial colony. A space organism that does stuff. Tbh I didnt know how to draw it (and I know they're usually a lot bigger) but eh, filler is needed.
10. the polish flag (with a flagpole, no pun intended). Poland can into space!

o7 and if you saw this at all I wish you luck out in the black."
