This looks hopeful.  Nice to see you doing something with this, nvseal.
So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?

Well, I haven't worked on the file in quiet some time. I've been thinking about starting a new project because I've learned a lot about the fractals since then. For your viewing pleasure however, here is an old render of the unfinished file.  ;)

That looks really good nvseal. You should definitely revisit and refine it, along with your planetary cloud stuff, and combine it all together for some epic renders, maybe even an animation, space to ground. :)

As Oshyan said, it's looking good.  An animation would definitely be cool (we don't see enough of those).

I know its kinda of topic but I was reading the dev log for Infinity: the quest for earth and found it interesting how hes doing it all. Interesting read at the least: http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/mod/journal/journal.asp?jn=263350
The world is round... so you have to use spherical projection.

This project is amazing, though I am pretty skeptical about its completion.  They really need a big name studio (and the funds to match) to pick it up, otherwise, it has a chance to fall behind and eventually become vaporware.

but hopefully open source vaporware. No I think he can do it but it will take a while.

yeah I'm really loving where this is goin...really after that last image.

I hope you dont give up on this. or at least if you do; release the file. I'd love to mess with it myself.
