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! :clap:

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
