2 of thing things that I've been wondering about since I started trying to learn Blender are: How to make a star background, and how to make the camera track an object. So, in addition to learning how to make a planet, I took away 2 really useful tips from this tutorial.
Finished both your ice and lava planet tutorials and learned a lot, thank you! I'd love to see a gas giant tutorial if you wanted to continue planets haha. With a ring pattern similar to Jupiter would be cool!
You're awesome man! Love your dedication and knowledge of shaders in blender. Especially how clear and concise you are in tutorials. Keep up the great work!
thanks! Yes, you could duplicate the sphere, and scale it up slightly. then you could add a separate material, but still use the same atmosphere node setup. Just switch out the principled shader to a transparent shader, so you can see the planet through the atmosphere.
I was actually wondering about that too. I've been trying to learn Blender after not touching 3D software for decades and back when I was using Lightwave a lot, a planet sphere and an atmosphere sphere was the normal way of doing it. Also, shouldn't the terminator be closer to the center of the planet. It looks like it's illuminated too far past the curve of the planet.
21:10 Isn't it better to use map range node instead of math/divide node ,you have better control over white and black value. your procedual material are amazing thank you.
Amazingly done. Juste a little tip, the stars behind the planet will not be visible because the planet is too bright so you don’t need to add them. (And it’s more realistic). Thank you tho for the procedural stars.
Ahh yeah, I see what you mean. You actually would not be able to see the stars. But in this case, I'm creating an artwork, so having stars is more artistically appealing.
@@RyanKingArt for some reason it doesnt smooth out but that might be because im using a mouse i cant afford any drawing tablet tho but i do have a tablet at my house
cool but why didn't you just use the volumetrics to generate your atmosphere? I like what you did with the color gradient though, wish that the volumetric one could be given a nice gradient like this :)
Also, why is the gradient shader for the seperate xyz color ramp smoother with the icosphere than a subdivided cube when smoothed into a sphere? I tried that before the icosphere and the gradient wouldn't smoothen out.
Volumetrics in blender is a joke. The edge of a volume is supposed to be less dense because of less amount of material for the ray to go through. But in blender it creates a more solid edge than in reality.
@@RyanKingArt After all, in 3D, everything and even more become possible. I think it could be as creative and original as interesting useful for a tutorial. The dome of glass and night and day circle ( which include a sun and a moon ) with the ice edges would make a rich content to learn. Or it's too complex / too long for a tutorial ?

literally doing all of your procedural texturing tutorials would result in unforeseen power
Haha thanks! 😀

Glad you've learned from it! Hope you enjoyed the tutorial. 😀
same!
THANK YOU! This is by far the best, clearest, easiest to follow planet creation tutorial out there. Bravo on an excellent video.❤
glad you like it! thanks for watching 👍

Woah, that looks so cool!
thank you so much!

Fantastic tutorial. Would be great if you added an atmosphere shell as a separate sphere. Would love to see how you'd set up procedural clouds.
thanks! Yes, you could duplicate the sphere, and scale it up slightly. then you could add a separate material, but still use the same atmosphere node setup. Just switch out the principled shader to a transparent shader, so you can see the planet through the atmosphere.
It would add a lovely depth to the planet surface casting shadows etc.

thats lovely
glad you like it!
This ice planet looks particularly neat.
thanks!
took me 4 hours but the end result was amazing, thank you so much
thanks for watching!
this is a lifesaver
glad you like it!
Like every single video you make, Amazing. thank you Ryan.
Thanks! Glad you like them!
@@RyanKingArt If we had some place to share our final renders/homeworks and you reviewing them, that would be awesome.

In Blender, we don't need things to be 100% physically accurate, to have more artistic freedom.
Ahh yeah, I see what you mean. You actually would not be able to see the stars. But in this case, I'm creating an artwork, so having stars is more artistically appealing.
@K Exactly. 🙂
@@RyanKingArt Not to mention that it would look weird without them since people are used to seeing stars in movies and games.
@@the_omg3242 Yeah. : )
It looks absolutely beautiful. So cold, too... Really captures the aesthetic, good job :)
Glad you like it! thank you 😃
Thank you sooo much, busy working through all of your procedural material tutorials. Learning a ton of new things!
thanks for watching!
ty
you're welcome!
Classic as always! Thank You, Ryan.
thank you!
Awesome Ryan. Thanks for this.
thank you for watching!
Amazing work, love the creativity!
Thanks!
Amazing work Ryan!
thank you very much!
this tutorial was awesome i learned a lot thank you
thanks for watching!
amazing tutorial. thank you so much ！！❤
thanks for watching!
You said 'Procedural' at least 10 000 times. But great tutorial! Thank you.
Lol yeah. thanks for watching : )
Amazing 🤩🤩
Thank you!
excelente
thank you.
Amazing
Thank you very much!
^_^ that tuts are priceless ^^
thanks!
Nice
thank you very much!
Nice
Thanks!!
Wow....Felt lik a mini-God...after you...of course!!!
lol thanks!
Color Ramp needs its own button on the shader editor interface...
what do you mean? what would the button do?
@@RyanKingArt click the button and boom, a color ramp appears
@@aegisgfx Ahh yeah I see. Because color ramps are used so often, there could be a button to quickly add one.
creative comnt...........................Thank you!!!!!!
thanks for watching!
cool video!
Thanks you very much!
This is amazing. Wish I could show you what I created using this tutorial
thanks for watching! have you uploaded your result somewhere online? could take a look at it where ever you've posted it.
Hey Ryan King, can you do tutorials on modeling everyday objects such as a car, a church, a watch?
thanks for the tutorial ideas. 👍
👍👍👍
thanks!!
Hey ryan can you please make more sculpting tutorials?
Thanks for the tutorial request! Anything specific you'd like me to sculpt?
@@RyanKingArt like a beginner alien head I'm a beginner and really want to learn
@@bloxgoblin7784 I actually already created an alien sculpt tutorial. You can check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/6EG3T4ngJBg/v-deo.html

mazing nwn

Great video :) How would you then turn this into an HDRI?
I have a video on how to make your own hdri's in blender. just look it up on my channel.
Following now but the emissions isn't acting like yours?! Mines outside the boundary of the planet
Can I import my softs into soft soft and process without using a mic
I don't understand what the question is. what is soft? And what does it have to do with a microphone?
Why you don't use Denoise under sampling render and use in compositing??
The Denoise node in the compositor is a lot faster.
Be good if you made it rotate
yeah, you could totally rotate the planet, and the sun, and make a cool animation.
Volumetrics in blender is a joke. The edge of a volume is supposed to be less dense because of less amount of material for the ray to go through. But in blender it creates a more solid edge than in reality.
Ahh ok.
Can I use this for a geometric planeta? i.e. a Cubic world
hmm I suppose you could add it to a cube.
Is there a way to export the final as a texture map?
yes, there is a tutorial on that
yes, you can bake the textures to texture maps. I have tutorials on my channel on how to do texture baking.
How is this time lesser than the banana?
Well, the banana was pretty complex, and also modeling the banana object took some time.
I’ll join your Patreon if you do a flat earth model tutorial ^_^
Ok 😂
