HELEN Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Pretty good so far. There are some jaggies (rough edges) on the bigger planet. Maybe you can add a galaxy-type thing in the background to fill in the gap between the planets. Don't be afraid to experiment.

JulioCoolio Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 For the planet I'd also put an atmosphere (the glow) just so that it looks a bit more "realistic." Awesome start though!!! Quote Gallery Image Blog Portfolio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAND33P Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 maybe using 'shape 3d' (plugin) you could add a more globe effect to it, or 'glass orb' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heat Stroke Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Very nice start to your gallery! I agree with everyone else, there are some amazing tutorials around here that will most definitely help you achieve the effect you are looking for. Quote Wait! No matter where you go, there you are!

pdnnoob Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 maybe using 'shape 3d' (plugin) you could add a more globe effect to it, or 'glass orb' If you ask me, that (shape 3D) looks like what (s)he did with the specular highlight turned off. My suggestion would be to move the shadow so that the light source appears to be the sun in the background (if it was the moon, it would be called a crescent when you are done). Besides that, it looks like a great start. As several others have mentioned, this forum has a lot of great tutorials for spacescapes. If you ask me, my favorite is flip's ^^ Quote No, Paint.NET is not spyware...but, installing it is an IQ test. ~BoltBait Blend modes are like the filling in your sandwich.
