Time to update the Gas Giant Portrait I created, now including the new versions of Saturn and Uranus I recently processed.

Jupiter is next on the list to be updated :)
The image is divided into four sections, each showing one of the gas giants against a black background. Top left: Jupiter. It appears as a large, round sphere with horizontal bands in shades of brown, tan, and white. A bright white oval storm sits on the lower right side. A faint ring is visible alongside Europa, one of its satellites, which appears very bright with a star-shaped artifact. Top right: Saturn. It has a pale beige surface with soft horizontal shading. Surrounding it is a wide, bright ring system tilted diagonally. The rings look thin and sharply defined, with multiple subtle bands of light and dark. Bottom left: Uranus. It appears as a smooth blue-green sphere with some whitish circular clouds around the pole that is facing the observer. Surrounding it is a bright circular ring system made up of thin white lines. The rings form a bright, symmetrical halo around the planet. Bottom right: Neptune. It is a blue sphere with slightly brighter and darker circular features on its atmosphere. It also has a thin ring system, dimmer and less defined than Uranus’s in this image, appearing as a faint double oval around the planet. Each planet has its name printed below it in white capital letters.
