Description
Next Spacepic up.I've been fooling around a lot in Terragen lately. Just to practise and this is the first artwork with one of the resulting renders. I know I'm no Terragen-Pro but I'm working on getting at least a bit better at it. Planets are created in Photoshop.
The clouds are stock photos maniped in. I'm glad the manip turned out better than in Daydreams where I actually had wished for the clouds to be better visible.
I don't know how many hours and layers exactly. But I'm guessing about 10 Hours and maybe 150 Layers...
Hate it or love it.

holy shiz.
what did u use for the planets' surfaces? just stock pic or sumthin or did u make that all yourself?
b/c i usually use stock pics of dirt,rocks,sand, etc all stitched together for that.

I really like the terrain but I do'nt think the clouds fit with the picture as a whole. It might just be the brightness but they just separate, not combine. I adore the planet side.

I really apreciate the idea of size given by this work, planets really appears as huge, i think this is particulary due to the smallest planet which gives an idea of scale for the rest.

thx a lot. glad you like this. I have allways been fascinated of the proportions of for instance our solar system. if you look at size differences of the sun and pluto, pluto would look like one pixel on screen while the sun wouldn't fit on it. So I'm glad this came accross in this picture.

i mostly use planet textures of different planets and fiddle them together to pretty large textures via clone tool. But that is only one of many ways and it's best to get creative. i too allways try to do different things... just be creative

Nice image. You could add a few more stars though....

It would'we been better without the lower planet, also the starfield is too thick but the terrain looks great!
