Simple Earth Tutorial

[Brian]

step 1: create a new document any size but i used 500x500 pixles.

step 2: create a new layer.

step 3: use the eliptical marquee tool to make a circle in the middle of the window (make sure you use the shift key to make it a perfect circle).

step 4: fill the circle with pure black.

step 5: go to filter>render>difference coulds and apply that a total of 3 times.

step 6: go to image>adjust>levels and use the stettings 0. 164. and 189.

step 7: go to filter>distort>spherize and apply +100% and then +50%.

step 9: press ctrl d to deselect.

step 10: select the background layer and fill it with black.

I think that when you create a planet, you should make it as realistic as possible. When you get over 50 posts, be sure to check out my planet tutorial in Members only section. You could also check out some other planet tutorials. There is a simple one at http://www.artofgregmartin.com.
If you kept working on a planet made from this tutorial, you could probably get a nice result, if you do it properly. You need to add shadows and lights to make it look more realistic. I really hope you continue experiment with space scenes since I seem to the only one who is addicted to it.
You can find a few pieces at my DeviantART (see my signature).
