Some updates:

Corellia


Coruscant

[Scourge of Ages]

Just some that I cooked up tonight for the hell of it

Weren't you worried that this statement and it's implications would make all the other modelers and artists hate your guts? I know I probably almost would if they didn't look so dang cool.

BTW I can't see Kessel. Think it's a temporary problem or something with Imageshack?

[brandx0]

Hehe, I'm sorry, I'll try less in the future.

And don't worry about Kessel, got a new version here, along with some new clouds on Corellia





Figured I'd add in some little mineral veins for the hell of it.

[chief1983]

They're both big improvements, Corellia's great, but Kessel still doesn't seem random enough, to be an asteroid-planet.  Like it's too smooth, even with the mineral veins.  The darker portion seems to be more rocky, although that might be atmosphere, I'm not sure.  It's much closer to what's in my mind when I think of Kessel, but it still doesn't seem close enough, especially compared to Coruscant and Tatooine.

I feel that Coruscant is missing its circles.

[brandx0]

Coruscant now has circles:



And a new Kessel.

Oh, and I forgot to mention, the clouds for Corellia come to us courtesy of Herra

[chief1983]

Both are great, I didn't think Coruscant could get better, but it did.  Kessel seems out of focus, like the picture was taken with a disposable camera instead of a properly configured SLR.  But the way it's set up seems great.

Forest Moon of Endor

It all depends on which Kessel you refer to. Imperial Kessel would have more atmosphere, because for some reason iirc they had the atmosphere factories going full tilt.  Convict-Kessel would be more like a big rock, with less atmosphere because apparently the convicts don't like breathing.



Love it so far. Keep up the god work.


What program, may I ask?

[brandx0]

Photoshop CS3

Love it so far. Keep up the god work.

One would think that typo was deliberate! Making planets is god work!   

[bobbtmann]

I'm curious about Endor. Why is the icy part (I'll assume its a pole) directly illuminated by the star?

[LordMelvin]

I like them. I like them . Especially Endor-moon and Corellia.

And Coruscant.

And Kessel.

Okay, these are all awesome... but they're not what I wanted to see. Where's Gavin Darklighter's X-wing? you did the rest of the squadron...

[brandx0]

Turambar is supposed to be working on it, but I haven't heard anything about it since he first asked to do it.

[Aardwolf]

They look too flat... like you just took an image and cut out a circle.

[Scourge of Ages]

I can't believe how awesome those look! It makes me want to vomit in shame.

So to speak.

[chief1983]

They look too flat... like you just took an image and cut out a circle.

I honestly think you're nuts.  There is clear spherical distortion towards the edge of every one of those planets, in all layers, clouds and surface.  Even still, I think Brand is just getting warmed up.

Are you going to do Kessel's garrison moon?

[brandx0]

Possibly, though I always thought it weird that a potato shaped planet the size of Mars (Which cannot physically exist.. by the way)  would have a perfectly spherical moon (Which can exist, though likely would be somewhat irregular given its small size)
