Description
Gaia: A hypothetical superorganism composed of the Earth's four spheres: the biosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and atmosphere. Gaia -- also called Gaea or Ge - was the Greek goddess of the earth. In Hesiod, Gaia came into existence after Chaos and produced the sky, mountains and sea. With the sky Ouranus, Gaia was the mother of the Titans, Cyclops, and Hecatoncheires. With Pontus, Gaia was the mother of Nereus, Thaumas, Phorcys, Ceto, and Eurybia.
One of my best, if not THE best, surface I've ever done. I also like how the sky came out. No, not the TGD alpha, just a sky-shot I grabbed from Mayang. Rendered terrain only, with EBD on, took about 6 and a half hours.
This same shot, with a different surface and completely different atmo will be up soon, in the shape of a teamwork-image with Alcotle. Enjoy!
