Sure! Be happy to explain. I'll document my work flow and upload here soon. In a nutshell - all the work is done in Photoshop (I'm using CS2) and I distort the image using the displace feature via a greyscale heightmap. I then skew the stars (essentially moving them away from the viewer or towards). Probably sounds complicated, however I assure you it's not.

I look forward to seeing some of your 3D conversions

Cheers

REALLY looking forward to it, thanks!
