Two more doodles.
Don't remember making so many images so fast even if they are doodles

I really like the first one, really strong compostion and nice textures.

Thanks.
I really tried hard to find a comp that i liked.I wanted to make an image with minimal work.
It begun as a doodle but i like the end result too actually.
I think there is only 5-10% or less work left...like more detailed ground-stones.
A good object like a spaceship etc. would be nice too maybe but i think it isn't needed in this one.

The second one was to see how it would look without an atmosphere.

Hey very nice! Love the 1st one

Kadri · January 17, 2015, 09:00:37 AM

Thanks

Yeah, I like the first one too. Nice to have time to doodle, huh?

Very nice!
just one point out of couriosity:
but why do the two moons/planets so different phases (crescent/half)? that only works if the two are roughly as far from each other than from the sun.

Cheers,
J

Thanks Ulco and i have so many time because i am waiting for renders to finish on 3 computers

Thanks and good point. The small moon isn't actually so small as it looks. It is on the far side of the planet-rings

Wow man, you have been making a lot of very cool images this month! I like the first image here too, but on my phone, the dark one looks really great, not so much on my desktop though.

Eye Catching. Nice work!

Kadri · January 18, 2015, 03:31:56 AM

Thanks guys.

Hannes · January 18, 2015, 06:28:13 AM

I prefer the first one too. It looks really epic. I agree about the different lighting of the moon and the planet. Even though I have no idea what is correct, my eyes want to see them both equally lit.

Kadri · January 18, 2015, 06:54:01 AM

Thanks Hannes. Even it isn't a error i will try to place it closer and see how it will look. Just curious too.

Kadri · January 18, 2015, 08:21:31 AM

Ok i tried it. It was kinda interesting.

Even if i put a smaller version of the moon closer to us if it is in the same position you get the same kind of shadow.
Only when i change its position horizontally to the left it gets the same shadow like the big planet.

It makes sense when you think about it. When it is on the right side we see more of the shiny side.
When it is on the left side more from the shadow part.

So i thought if we are very very far away and zoom in (kinda orthographic view) then the shadows should nearly look the same and when i tried it it looked so actually.
It depends how close we are to the objects and in which relative position we are as it should i think.

So no change, sorry guys physics don't let me change it and i don't want to fake it

Beautiful images, the composition trumps the physics here!
