the textures used were  exported in the NEW  layers option
the 16bit zBuffer was used to make a Normal Map for the shading
and exported in simple-cylindrical planetgraphic  format ( the equal rectangle area )



the layers used
z buffer - for the Height map ( 8bit jpg of the 16 bit image)
inverted and gamma corrected

_image16.png
colored and color mapped


and a merge of the _col & _glow for the "glow"

 I'm glad that layer exporting function is usable. I didn't know for what it could be used, but now I see.

the layers are good for using in other 3d programs
this one is Celestia .You could use them in Pov-Ray also or Lightwave or any render

imressive results and cool idea - very natural. O K !!

i like the individual layers too - you can not only create images impossible to the pure renderer, especially the zbuffer makes it much easier, to create masks for postwork. my recent works live from this feature!  grin
