Procedural Planets
A fun little test experimenting with shading a planet procedurally using Blender’s material node editor.

Planet 1 - A relatively simple earh-like looking planet, seemingly teeming with life.

Planet 2 - An empty and dusty desert planet with a ring of asteroids surrounding it. Rich in precious metals and minerals.

Planet 3 - A cold and desolate ice planet, with bone chilling winds. Said to contain rare crystals and gems, buried deep beneath the icy surface.

Planet 4 - An arid and rocky volcano planet. Not much besides blistering heat and instantaneous death can be found here.
