I was incredibly surprised to discover that I could create the space background in-program with ![](https://www.google.com/s2/favicons?domain=https://krita.org)[Krita](https://krita.org), just by using different built-in presets from the [Halftone filter](https://docs.krita.org/en/reference_manual/filters/artistic.html).

This is one of my favorite artworks that I've spent time working on!
