Title: Make Your own Solar Systems using Photoshop/Paint/ etc.
Post by: Naru523 on July 03, 2009, 02:01:19 PM
Here's mine with Photoshop. I think this is the best one I made! It's a binary star system. It contains 7 planets (Only 3 is shown, 1 is a moon) The star below is actually a supernova. So it isn't a triplet.

This looks so amazing I was thinking why don't 3D artists use photoshop, paint, or other programs like that?

And another! The system is a binary that consist a red giant star and a white dwarf star (Kind of like Siruis). The system contains 6 planets, but 2 is eaten from the red giant.

Wow, they're beautiful! :O
But hmm... Aren't there too many/too big pictures of planets on the picture, concidering their size compared to the distance between them?
Anyways, they look amazing. :)

Some planets may engulf if the suns continues its present progress. After some billion years. the solar system may be dead.

3D artists will often use photoshop to create the textures for their models and then use it again to touch up a rendered scene.

Paint should come on any Windows computer.

Look in the Start Menu > All Programs > Acsecories > Paint

When I create planets, I make 3 layees.
3-Texture and inner glow.
2-Atmosphere
1-Dark side of the planet

If you want to make your planets more 3d looking, go to filter>distort>spherize.
Put it up to the highest and there you go! ;)
