My advice is to work on a black background. You can blur the edges, add atmospheric effects, etc. and it will give you a better approximation of what it will actually look like. Only dye the background (pure, aliased) green when you're completely finished.

Looks quite good, actually. It looks like there's actually an atmosphere and the planet below is teeming with life. Good job. :yes:

Would be possible. But first, I should re-gradient the image. It is too bright as of my opinion.

I have big plans, now if only I could see them through.

I see - new one looks even better. (Very circular, too. :p)

Well..for starters it's not that bad. If you would use it as a planet in FS2, it shouldn't look too bad viewed from distance. Oh and if you wanna make cool planets use Lunarcell. :nod:

I don't put it in game. You will see it somewhere else ;)
