So, more like this? (planet is full size)

[blowfish]

IMO the atmo glow should  be a bit brighter.

The ocean should be less blue, kinda muddy looking (it's undrinkable).

[blowfish]

Our oceans are blue, but also undrinkable (salt).

[Snail]

It doesn't look Vasudan enough. Anyhow, it says: Vasudans originate on the fourth planet of the Vasuda system, the only planet in that system that is capable of supporting life. Known as Vasuda Prime, is a relatively hostile world. Both of the twin continents of Vasuda Prime are almost entirely desert, and most of the above-ground water is, even by Vasudan standards, undrinkable. In order to adapt to these surroundings, Vasudans developed quite rapidly.

So I'd say FSFreak's depiction is relatively accurate. But I'd like to see at least 1 version with crappy water.

@blowfish: Like in the one on the previous page?

             If I make it more beige (muddy), there won't be any difference left between the sea and the desert/clouds.

The clouds shouldn't be beige, anyway. But if you make the ocean just one smooth sheet, it will look much different from the textured ground. A different shade of beige would work too.

Sort of.  I think the color should be less saturated (closer to white).

[FreeSpaceFreak]

Next try - changed the colour of the atmo glow, the ocean and the dust clouds. Please comment.



And something I made using an older version - I'll fix that when we've agreed on what the planet should look like. Tell me what you think!

[ShadowGorrath]

That Vasuda Prime looks awesome. It's just how I imagined it to look. Maybe a bit different atmosphere glow, but good nevertheless.

As for the second one. One slight grammar mistake in the text ( 'it's' not 'its' ), and 10 bilion Vasudans were killed and Vasuda Prime became mostly uninhabitable. Also, the line on Vasuda Prime showing it's ( forgot the word ) needs to be fixed. On the other hand, it also looks great.

These pics are excellent but the water effect in the first one isn't convincing...

[jr2]

Nice planets, yes, precious, Gollum!

[Droid803]

That looks awesome

It could be reflecting a different colored sky.

It makes me sad looking at it for some reason (I think it's the color of the sea).

[haloboy100]

I thought the sea should be yellowish.

[Snail]

I thought the sea should be yellowish.

Agreed, but this looks pretty cool.

[Topgun]

lets say I want to make a planet that looks exactly like a planet from a movie or something, how? I can make good planets but can't make good copies of planets.

[Droid803]

That planet looks....decidedly Shivan. Even though we all know Shivans don't land on planets...

[Snail]

It looks decidedly Shivan-nuked.

[ShadowGorrath]

And unless Topgun minds, It'll probably be used in the Ancient-Shivan War
