So, time to make some colors for the lad. As we discovered before, the planet has a highly oxidizing atmosphere so I went looking for oxidized rock in my old geology books. Using the alpha channel for selection I the painted blotches of color, starting with larger brushes, then smaller and smaller. Some distorting filters and then more painting. Finally I did get something that looked like a nice -base- palette.

Fig 5.1 : Base palette or surface colors.

Time to do a test-drive in your're favorite 3D application again, to check out the size of features.

Fig 5.2 : Test-render.

Note... there are still ways to go here, but the overall size of things looks promising. Now where are those W.I.P threads ?!

Cheers
