Description
Something Different
Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and by far the largest. Jupiter is more than twice as massive as all the other planets combined (318 times Earth). I just thought I would do something different than my usual Spaceship. Here you see Jupiter and four of its moons; Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto. This image is just an approximation of where these moons are. The images of Jupiter and Io are from JPL/NASA than mapped to spheres. The other 2 moons are just texture maps created in Bryce. The starfield was created in Universe during postwork than the entire picture was tweaked in Photoshop.
Thanks for taking the time to look.
Cheers,
David

Superb work!
MOST AWESOME!! BRAVO!
Cool image.
Cool work, but I don't think Jupiter creates it's own ambience? As in, the shadow-half would be almost totally black. Love the image mapping, perhaps try it with volumetrics? Subsurfacescattering? (smirks)
allrighty mate, awesome
shadowdragonlord, thanks for your comment. I realize that Jupiter does not create it's own ambiance but, when you have the planets edge on the backside that blends seamlessly into the background you just cannot determine where the planet ends and the starfield begins. I had to bump up the ambiance before rendering in order to see the outline of the planet for postwork. The starfield itself is applied during postwork than cleaned up in PhotoShop. If you can see the rings around Jupiter against the background starfield you may want to turn down the brightness on you monitor. The rings themselves should be just barely visible on your monitor screen. I hope this explains why you see the image as is. Cheers, David
