    I think many of the people here use something like Fractal Terrains or Wilbur because they up a full planet. I don't have either so I can't be sure but I am sure that those that do have them will chime in sooner or later. I, and a few others, use good ole Google Earth. We make up our own world then import it into G.E. There is a quasi-tutorial around here somewhere that shows exactly how.

    It's in this thread:

    Just read through the posts and further down (page 2) the Master RobA explains it. As far as making up your own world to import into G.E., well there's a ton of tutorials here to help get ya started.

    If this is pertaining to some of those artwork pieces from a few months back, then they used Photoshop and/or GIMP in a more painterly style. There are tutorials on the web for making them.

    If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
