Description
Edit: Upon a few requests changed from .rar to .zip.A Tutorial on how to create Craters for Spaceart in Photoshop and how to apply them to a planet.
I tried to make it as comprehensible as possible. It isn't easy writing tutorials and i know that they can be a pain in the royal butt if you get to a point you don't understand. So if you have questions just contact me and i'll be glad to help. I also recommend that you try an touch up your own craters a little more once you have applied them to your planet (which is where this tutorial ends). I recommend adding some custom shadows inside the craters and painting over places you don't think turned out that well. I would have liked to write something on that aswell, but then this tutorial would have ended up with far too many steps and pages.

I'm also planning on making this a video tutorial for even better comprehension, but the screen recorders i've found so far don't have a satisfactory quality or filesize, so if you know a good program for that please share

That's an interesting way of going about making craters. Wouldn't it be easier though to have a transparent background so you don't have to erase the edges/fiddle with the levels so much? or fill the background color with 808080.
Anyway, that's really nice and stuff. Good job!

Try looking up Jingo. It's a screenshot utility that pretty much lets you do anything you want, whether it be video or still screenshots, at any resolution (click and drag to make a box). It's pretty cool.

Haven't read it word for word yet, but checked out the images and it seems to be a pretty impressive way of making craters. (Y)

Well as i say, I saw exactly what you were doing simply by looking at the diagrams, so its seems sound.
