I have been spending a lot of time lately modeling and converting things into textures and so on for my solar system in Space Engine. Pop, out came some small moons from all that work (each modeled by hand in Blender 3D). Though i find space engine gives a strange layered effect just because of the bump texture shade resolution. I have noticed that the default Phobos and Deimos around mars have this issue as well if you look closely.

Cashid:
A small ring moon mostly made of iron and covered in ring dust. it orbits within Jeulio's Roche limit where it should be ripped apart by tidal forces, but it is small and held together well enough by its own structure that it will hold together.
it is flat in shape due to collecting ring dust on its equator. Much like Saturn's moon Pan

Shèper:
A larger ring moon that guides the rings of Jeulio with its gravity.

Peani:
Another tinny little moon though this one is most likely a rubble pile made of ring dust held together by static and gravity. I was inspired by Saturn's moon Methone, its really cool for how small it is! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methone_…

Eues:
Another moon made mostly of Iron and mettle, Eues would make a very good place for mining, but only if you can stay safe from Jeulio's incredible radiation belts all around it. It is darker in colour. Eues is one of the more massive minor moons. This moon can sometimes be seen in the sky of Oesha and is named by the races of the Near Lands.

ST1A-PL4-MM5:
Wi'm sorry for my not naming of things
Another tinny one made of the same stuff as Eues and is just as dangerous in radiation. Though it looks as if part of it broke off leaveing a big flat cut area.

Kyeue:
The largest of the near set of moons, but only the 2nd larges minor moon after Lemal (i still need to model Lemal sadly so it is not here, but i want to do something awesome with it) . This moon can easily be seen in the sky of Oesha and is named by the races of the Near Lands as well. Kyeue is mostly made of rock and iron. it is the last minor moon from the rings before the major moons of Jeulio.

Yardiki:
This is not a near moon, it orbits far away and is most likely just a lump of rock that Jeulio picked up into its gravity though it is not the only one. It looks like it may have been a contact binary.

One day the races of Oesha will explore these tinny little worlds. They will map and name them the same way we saw the planets for 100s of years before we could finally reach out to them. Though luckey for the creatures of Oesha, they are already living in an awesome moon system where things are all near by and amazing. earths moon is SOOO boring in comparison to an entire gas giant system.

Made in Blender 3D, baked light map to get topography in Blender as well. edited and cleaned in GIMP. exported by using CubeMap script thing program whatever it is.
Its acturaly not to hard to do when it all comes down to it.

Again, this will all be out as an addon to Space Engine one day, when i am all done so you can fly around all this work for yourself.
