Needed a place to test out some global crater ideas.
All craters are from combinations of power fractals.
I like....... :)
That's a pretty convincing (photo-real) image
Beautiful surface!
Detail in the rocks and general surface work is fantastic!

Man that dirt is just perfect! Sell it on the NWDA
Stunning!
Photo quality for me ;)
Nice. But my first thought was that it looked like some of these photo's where the special blur makes it into a miniature. It's the background I suppose.
great surfacing....
Thanks for all comments.
The clouds are just very low density and edge sharpness cumulus with no atmosphere shader.
I just wanted something off world looking but I agree it does resemble the blurred background of the focal blur gimmick photos.

Decided to do a starfield and do away with the clouds. I worked over a star/neb set up I had used some time ago, which took ideas from several existing starfields such as Moodflows.
Following my same line of reasoning as in making the craters, I replaced the old Perlin fractals, instead used large (but distant) Voronoi billows to create the stars. All piped to a background sphere as luminosity.
Added some likely grunge to the base of the discarded item. The blue power ring must still hold some residual charge and seems to repel dust.
I like this one better............ :)
nice sky, subtle but effective
V2 is very much better indeed. I like it!
