Title: planet
Post by: asiej on 2018-11-13, 16:42:59

Hi
Can anyone tell me how to do planet in Corona. Something like this: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5891116fd1758ec68eedf0b2/58d5975f20099e23c0d003b6/58e7d09a6b8f5b4c802fd004/1491587287927/Mars_Render_A+%281%29.png?format=1000w

Here's my quick and nasty attempt, took about 20mins. Setup was simple, a few layered spheres with different fresnel shaders. Stars and "dirty lens" look was added in PS. ;)

Thanks for reply.
Sphere with planet texture is not a probem :) But how to make shining atmosphere in c4d with Corona? You didn't do it.
Another example, this time Earth: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/5891116fd1758ec68eedf0b2/58d5975f20099e23c0d003b6/58e79b99e6f2e19834482425/1491573695115/Earth_Render_D.png?format=1000w

I played a bit with differently sized spheres and the volume shader.
Plus VFB post.

That's better :)
But how to do it? Can you share your c4d file?

On this attempt, I used the bloom and glare pass and increased its size in PS, then applying some heavy blur and layer mix options.

Sure, but heads up - it's a very rough world, erm, file!

I used Volume Material as an atmosphere (results in attachment). It's far from perfect. Edges are too sharp. Is there any way to soften it?
And using very high bloom and glare is not a good idea. It obviusly acffect everything in the scene.

I found exactly what I need on this forum. Unfortunately I didn't get answer yet :( Do you have any idea how to achieved it?

Hey Folks, I made a tutorial on how you can do this with the current build of Corona in C4D.

Great timing for me to take a while off and then see that one of my areas of expertise has already been done. :(
