That is a very hot looking planet. Ok, cool looking planet. I really like the subtle shading outside the illuminated areas.

Thank you guys. It's still a WIP so things might change. Actually, I have already changed the moon slightly, will update soon.

This is looking really fantastic. I wonder how it holds up to a closer view, hehe.

It should hold near orbit and even closer. Im using same lava shader as in my volcano scene, except with some slight adjustments, but anyway. I'm working on other parts of the scene before making final renders...

Here's an early near orbit render from pole, made before the other ones..

Inspiring work freelancah  :o would love to be able to do these shots!

One question though. What can you do about the blue atmo, where the planet meets space? I read part of a conversation on another thread that lead me to believe its a complicated matter. (Upper right of the planet)

TheBadger; You can edit your atmo colours easily to anything you like with the colour settings for bluesky horizon colour in the main tab and the bluesky/redsky density colour settings in the tweaks tab.

You also have an option to use another colour for the envirolight(GI/AO) in the atmo's lighting tab, and also, the 'ambient' setting in the tweaks tab lets you choose yet another colour for the main body of the shadowed atmosphere, this is defaulted to black but any colour can be used here, too. :)

Thanks dandelO.

I got to try a shot like this!

that's a nice shot.
Terragen looks to be the ultimate orbital render software.  ;D
There's some very nice space shot this year.
This last one is one of the best.
I hope to see a HUGE resolution render for this one.

Thank you all. I'm still perfecting the moon and main planet... Main planet disabled in this view and the moon is slightly larger than what it will be in the final...Background is a modified version of moodflows procedural star setup!

Are you planning an animation of this? Because it really needs one!

Yes, animating this would be very cool. Please do.

Good stuff here. Change the color to an off-white, mess with the contrast and brightness and that glow can be a distant asteroid colony as well.

I've been away to long. You folks are knocking out some fine renderings.

Thank you all for the support! I've been so rediculously busy that I haven't had the time to update this thread or even visit the forums but anyway here is something I rendered a while back. Still has issues to solve. Currently I dont have time to work with this let alone have any spare render power to finish the project..moving soon and working 2 jobs takes my time atm, but halfway next month or so I might have time to get back on this!

Oshyan I dont think I will, atleast not anytime soon.. lack of render power mostly the issue >_>
