I'm done! For now at least... but right now i'm done. This was a fun piece to do, I tried some new stuff, well kinda. It's not really new, it's just that I haven't used the technique since Visitors, and well, that was a awhile ago. I used some new apophysis renders in this piece, doesn't look too bad I think.
This piece actually reminds me a lot of Visitors, it wasn't planned either. It's actually interesting because the location of the two planets, faded colors (almost b&w), the location of the apophysis renders, and of course the terragen render. Maybe it's just me though.
Sure, you'll be able to see my complete process for making planets such as these here: [link] Though nowadays I wrap my planet texture around a sphere in 3ds max, render it and do postwork on the planet in photoshop.
Hope it helps!
