Duna Blender Render

[tajampi]

Hi there

I like a lot making renders. Amongst many other themes, i like the space and universe imaginery. Here it is a little example of what can be done using KSP themes and textures. I hope you enjoy it. Can be a nice wallpaper, for instance. If you like it, don't hesitate on suggesting me particular renders you would like to have or to use. Cheers!

Textures from Kerbal Wiki.

not bad, could probably have a denser atmo and slightly lower

Holy crap, that's amazing. I swear, I'll never be able to build something like that in my time(and with my current hardware - it can't run Team Fortress 2 at all).

You should use displacement modifiers with multires to get some more geometry on there, othar than that it is really solid render.

Thanks for your replies and advice

Thanks Rareden. The atmosphere is made with Paint.Net Was a quick one... For sure it can be much better using Gimp, for instance. I will try it and post the attempt in other render. No day without learning... I need improving my technique. Will follow your advice.

Cheers!

havent used blender before so cant offer advice on that, or gimp. i use after effects 3ds max and photoshop for the ones in my sig. but for the atmo you could try a stronger/brighter color nearer the surface then fading to that dark red as it gains altitude

Hey Rareden:

Lucky you are using After Effects and professional stuff like that. I am restricted to Blender and all (btw superb) free software around there because of my age. (Broken completely, i'm 11... my dad made the account... damn VBulletin...). I show you here something i made only with Gimp (Making it rendered by Blender should improve greatly the result). I think you were talking about the effect of "fading" from light to dark in order to get an "atmosphere-like" effect. Please give me your opinion. Thanks a lot and cheers.

That's amazing

I think the second render looks pretty nice. If I were you, I'd tone down the atmosphere a little bit on the dark half of the planet. You've got the spherical dropoff going good, it just needs to be a bit more pronounced. Also, maybe work on a better sun texture, as the current one is basically a lens flare effect.
