Hey Everyone! In this video I share how you can create planets for space scenes in Blender 3d quickly and effectively. It involves using three steps. A planet with a texture, overlaying clouds, and adding an atmosphere with volumetrics. Finally you can composite these three layers together with glow and glare and you are good to go! Enjoy and let us know what you would like to learn next on the channel!

its a good tutorial but it really annoyed me when I almost finished and then you just didn't explain how to do the view layer thing. I also couldn't find where you linked it in the description. No hate, you are good at explaining.

I don´t see why the need for an HDR environment map for illuminating it all, in space there are no such things, you have one sun source only, a distan sunlight. If you refer to atmospheric illumination, surely that can be done within any atmosphere layer?
@LightArchitect
10 ай бұрын
Hmmm. I think you could create a similar effect without the environment map. In my opinion the subtle environment map provides slight variation in the lighting. As some say...imperfections are the digital realism. Just a thought.

@@LightArchitect I may need to test it, but if there is some level of atmosphere thickness, I doubt such environment map would have any significant impact on the earth surface, it would vanish in a haze..so to speak :) A very clear view on the ground, from space at close encounter and hardly and thickness in the atmosphere, then such small light changes would perhaps do the trick though. If it concerns atmosphere that is so thick or without any ground visible, environment is of no use since variations in atmosphere and clouds are worked out within the atmosphere layer or cloud layer... In real life imperfection is just reality, and it has to do with how clouds cast shadows, obscure light with variationbs based on it´s properties, and variations in the earth atmosphere and regional dust particles, as well as variations in how the earth grounds surface material is absorbing and scatter reflecting the light,

Love your tutorials, I usually know 99% of what you're doing but there's always some gold nuggets in each one, plus they're the right length. One thing that hurts though (like most Blender artists) your compositing is terrible. It's fine at an amateur level but as a compositor myself I see so many great 3D scenes made and then either completely ruined at the comp phase, or just not fully realized. n

Hi Yesyesnonono, I appreciate the feedback and the kind words. What compositing steps should I work on in your opinion? Are you a Nuke or Fusion fan? I'm a CG generalist but just got into node compositing around 2 years ago. Before it was all about AE haha. Interested in your feedback.

@@LightArchitect Advice? it's tough to say ... I feel like you (as are most CG-centric peeps) are missing the fundamentals of compositing. I don't mean this in a dickish way, it's just that your CG is SO impressive that it becomes noticeable that the comp is not at the same level. I can't teach you to comp in a comment, but beginner issues usually come down to black levels (for example, a CG element in the mid/BG having deeper black levels than something in the FG plate), same thing goes for defocus levels, using too much glow / lightwrap... I could go on since it's a deep subject. I've been a Nuke compositor on feature films for the past 15 years, prior to that I used After Effects daily on motion graphics and broadcast VFX. AE is a joke for proper compositing, and Fusion is cumbersome IMO -- mind you I haven't used it much since it was bought by Black Magic. I don't know any serious compositors who use it but I appreciate that it's free and would love it if Nuke had some competition, because the Foundry are a horrible corporation who hate artists and are determined to become the next Autodesk/Adobe. Anyways, looking forward to more of your tutorials.

Dude... I find these type of tutorials so annoying.. you give us this beautiful little space animation that gets me really excited, and then you don't even show us how to make it. We end up creating a static version that finishes so abruptly at the end I haven't got a clue how to get that final result. Why? Anyone can make a planet, there's over 100 tutorials on YT, but no one shows you have to make the cool animation like you presented... please redo this properly.. the animation is bloody amazing with the aurora effects :))

It isn't an animation tutorial. You can easily youtube how to animate. Animation isn't something specific to this. It's something that has its own set of functions that are applied to scenes. This is actually a fantastic tutorial with great explanation in a bite-sized video.

@I_am_Spartacus Again, this isn't an animation tutorial. It's how to set up a scene. The video would be going off topic and have been too long. Your inability to understand the material doesn't make it bad material. It's different than other space tutorials because it's more thorough. You apparently haven't even looked at other videos because almost none do both scenes and animation. Your sour attitude is probably why you aren't comprehending the material.
