[John Van Vliet]

i am relearning the NEW'ish UI in the current Blender 2.91.2
as part of this i am making planets

here is one

Added after 6 hours 20 minutes:
some more

a Asteroid

.

These look incredible!!! I especially like landmasses on both of them as they have a really nice surface texturing too them. Makes it feel all the more realistic to an actual exoplanet. Great job!

a few more renders

i can upload the 4k textures used if people want
or
upload the *.blend file for those that want to check out the set up

[trappistplanets]

a Asteroid

can you send the mesh as .CMOD and send the texture
that looks so amassing and it would look nice in fictional systems

realistically you don't need meshes for planets (other then mars due to its extream elevations)
some dwarf planets could use a mesh
