I like it, but I think there should at least be some lakes or oceans for that much greenery to exist, besides that it's awesome

well, if it's realy Arakis, you'd expect only small starting lakes in this phase...

Nice.  Very good land mass.  Clouds...I don't know if there supposed to look that flat from up here, but I imagine 'yes'.  Looks good.

J'aime bien ces planètes va falloir que je m'y mette aussi histoire de faire autre chose !
Les couleurs sont sympas même si elles semblent peu conventionnelles mais c'est pas la terre bien sûr !  ;)

It's very nice. The colors are so cool. I have to agree with darthvader about the water. Theres a lot of clouds on your planet, so I would have thought it had some water.

Isn't the planet Arrakis a fully desert world or at least the last time I heard about it was? The sand contains the spice AKA Melange which prolongs life and makes interstellar travel possible. Nice image by the way (I spotted the Dune reference right away).  ;D

Regards to you.

Will,

Can I ask which book Arrakis is terra-formed in as the only book I've read is the Original Dune? Apart form that I have not yet read any of the other books!

Regards to you.

"Children Of Dune" is the book in which Arrakis is terraformed. Also there was a mini series made a few years back based on the book as well on the sci-fi channel.
