You may, but only if I have the right to have it be taken down whenever I wish.

Thanks a lot!
A stop right is yours of course, so please say to me at that time.

excellent detail, but maybe a better atmosphere would make it even better and smoother on the planet edges. Loving the planet texture

this has to be a fav!
how did you texturize the planet so well?
π: 0 β©: 1
Hah, I don't really remember. I think the 3d render came out pretty well.
Glad you like it. Thanks a lot!

Superb texturing on the planet, I can tell that was the main point of this peice, though the Sun is nice too !

It was just a practice, so I was surprised by how well it came out. Bleh, I wish I had this at high res so I could submit it as a print. Too bad.
Thanks a lot for all your comments and I'm sorry for replying so late.

great work. the planet looks stunning
when you made the texture in ps, how big did you make it? I'm try working with about 2000-3000 pixels but I can't go any bigger

I made it 4000x4000 and I made it recurrent, so I could tile it in 3dsm. Thanks
π: 0 β©: 1
oo i've been trying to do that (the reccurent thing) but haven't been able to get it right (probably becuase i have no idea what to do lol). I'll get it sooner or later
you're welcome

just use the offset filter and blend the edges, then use that filter once more , blend the edges edges again and tada

This planet is really pushing the envolope! The POV is amazing, and if I did not know better I would have thought this was created in Terragen2. The β3dinessβ on the planet is just amazing man, I am loving this. Personally I do not like the lightflare, but it doesnβt look bad by any means so it works out. I really do not have much to say about this one, keeep them coming!

Thanks a lot man. I'll sure try to keep them coming. I have a lot inspiration these days.

Just beautiful!! Luv the textures & colors!

fantastic piece, but the planets outline lacks of antialiasing.
π: 0 β©: 0
wauw, dat is het enige wat ik uit kan brengen. Dit is echt schitterend en dat zegt iemand die helemaal gek is op de ruimte. ^^

amazing texture, that's all i got to say.
btw, comet's tail always goes to a direction away from sun (i know i sound nerdy)
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah, well there is a bigger sun much closer which we can't see, because it's blocked by the planet

Is it a real planet or just a random drawing?
π: 0 β©: 1
Just some random stuff.

Yeah man, the textures are greatly done! Superb!

I can really feel the depth in the planet, well done

A real throwback to the days of old. Flare is awesomely retro - if it had a few little sharper defraction spikes it would be perfect.
As for that planet, awesome texture, real character. Only problem is that oversharpened part.
π: 0 β©: 1
Heh, yeah, I love the way people used to do flares. I didn't go for a retro look on purpose, but I guess that's how it came out and I like it.
Old space art is good. Do you think space art has made much progress since, say, 4 years ago?
Thanks a lot man
π: 0 β©: 1
Well any genre is bound to make progress. I'm just not sure I like the way it is going. BUT, that said, i think often, in all styles, pieces that take their place as a throwback to the "old days" are always refreshing.
π: 0 β©: 1
Heh, yeah, I took the retro thing as a compliment. And I meant positive progress. It's unfortunate that some of the old masters of the genre have moved on, but I'm afraid that's simply what happens.
π: 0 β©: 1
Yep, it sure does. I mean, the genre is still progressing in some positive ways of course, just can't help but feel that there are an equal share of downfalls.

yeah, a lot is lost. Let's end with a quote from someone we both greatly admire. "I plead to true spaceartists to head the call, and come back to dA. Show us, show all, the true thinking behind this oh so clichΓ©d form of art."

wow dat is echt een chille texture man. heel erg mooi gedaan, ik denk dat ik toch maar een keer 3dsm aan moet schaffen
π: 0 β©: 1
ja texture is gewoon PS he. Ik gebruik 3dsm alleen om die close ups van planeten te krijgen. Met ps kan ik maximaal 4000x4000 spherizen en dan worden de randen ook een beetje raar. Voor een shot als dit is het handiger om met 3dsm te doen
π: 0 β©: 1
Ja ik snap dat je de texture met PS doet, maar wist niet van de 3dsm. Maar toch bedankt!

The planet texture is amazing, I have to learn 3Ds max it would help me out so much and judging by the result you got (from years and years of practice I would believe) then it would be an improvement from my planet making alot
Really nice work, I envy your skills.....
π: 0 β©: 1
Thanks! The texture was made in PS. I would normally make my planets in PS, but for close planet shots like this one, 3dsm works a lot better for me. I can spherize up to only 4000x4000 in photoshop and then the edges of the planet get to look a bit strange, so I use 3dsm for big planets. I've only used it a couple of times, though, and I still do quite some work on the planets in photoshop.
Thanks again

Ohh okay
IΒ΄ll stick with doing my planets in PS for the time being... might try out 3dsm later.
