Re: Celestial Objects Thread


Do we have anything similar that may work nicely as Vasuda Prime?

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Yeah, we know that since FS1. The style of that pic seems to fit, so I was wondering if we have something like that working as Vasuda Prime. :)

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Well, there's the Vasuda Prime that FSF made back on page 12, but other than that I don't know of any.  Maybe someone could make an updated one. <.<

Re: Celestial Objects Thread

I found a relatively easy way to make Gas Giants in GIMP.  I will post a tutorial shortly.
EDIT:  Maybe not so shortly, but I will eventually.

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Do you guys read the tutorials posted on deviantART? Many of them are extremely useful. :nod:

Bump to show approval of that Retsof's gas giant. :):yes:
Looks even better than most of the extrasolar planet textures used in Celestia.

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
once again  :jaw: seriously this is borderline pornography.

* headdie painfully switches from cock rocking mode to critique mode

I much prefer the new blue/green planet over the old one, the new one.  the terrain and sub sea detail is far superior

the rock ball with rings. 1) reminds me of  a planet in Unreal II. 2) looks awesome 3) there is a slight lighting issue on the left side of the planet where the rings go behind the planet, its bright and to me it looks like it should be dark

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Some of them are really good, others suck really bad.

First four are great, and the ring one is ok too, the others.... well I don't like them much :p .

Keep it coming T-LoW :yes:

Re: Celestial Objects Thread
Yeah the quality dithers a little bit. But I'm searching my textures via google and throw 5-10 together :P

Oh, the asteroid is of course just edited and not created by me (it's a real one :) ).

EDIT:

I created a small 2D-Animation with two planets. The backmost isn't ugly! :p
