Very nice, but it's the same tutorial as it is of GREG MARTIN.

Well, thats why you'll see a big disclaimer on the first page! It goes something like:

I didn't notice -plops dunce cap on- that there was more to this tut than the first page. But I played with it, and I still had alot of fun! This is a great one, thanks for making it.

I love the tutorial, but I can't seem to set the texture when I get to the brushes tab...

I'm having trouble doing the painting. And then on the 3rd page, step 8 & 9 where it says the effects layer should only have the effects. I do step 7 with the atmosphere, and then I link the new transparent effects layer and the Planet copy layer, but when I merge them together, the planet is still there. Please help!

...I just applied the entire texture to the planet, instead of using the textured brush. Seems to have worked okay, and it looks almost the same.

I love this tutorial, it's pretty sweet.

This is a really nice tutorial. One idea if i may add, a lense flare behind the planet on the background looks really good.

Thx

I was wondering is anyone could do me a favor. I can't do steps 2 & 3. I've been tring for hours and i can't seem do get it to look right or even close to right. Would someone please start it on a 1280x1024 document, do up to step 4 and then save it and send it to me so i can finish the rest.It is just for myself and i won't be posting it any where so its not like i'm trying to scam anyone. My e-mail is jacob_7_blue@hotmail.com. It would be very much appreciated.

It took me a bit to figure out this step as well. I made the Fill of the top planet layer zero (0%) and then did the merge to get the effects layer to look right.
