Ah, yes. Another planet WIP. I love planets. Great work as usual, Tovette.

My biggest pet-peeve is people saying they have a pet-peeve.

Nice job, I really need to get back to work on my planet.

The planet is a little over 9000 miles in diameter. So it's about 2000 miles bigger than Earth. When I write up the the planets statistics I may make it a tad less dense than Earth to help keep the Gravity well down to Earthnorm.

I have updated the planet a bit more, although the changes are subtle. I also included a copy of the planet texture along with a closeup of the actual resolution of the texture i'm using. This map isn't finished yet, it's just the latest version.



I still need to create a spec map for the land masses and also make a custom cloud map as I'm using a temporary Earth map.


Almost done with this and then I'll start on the city lights map...

Stay tuned

Excellent start ! ... don't forget to add the rivers to the specular/alpha channel.

Keep up the work, Nate. Ask if you need some tips/tricks =)

I'm using Lightwave to build and render the planet.
