Create a sun

[freelancah]

Yes it's quite possible and should look good even when animated

looks nice.

The Banding in the darker area is strong though. Compression issue?

[skarlath]

that seems to happen on all my images, probably the host website doing something to it

The video looks good in the low right side. Just need to be faster at least. And of course all over the sun.

Do you know why the motion is not happening throughout the sun?

For the flares, trapcode "form" for after effects could be a great animation solution, if you have access.

in that video the surface animation is too slow, sped it up a bit in a later one but its still hard to see, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YbrRllW12c

Very good, looks rly cool.

Just for all sun lovers out there, watched a nice short some time ago including also a beautiful and well done sun (for me at least):
