    I hope you'll like them


    Important note :
    I used directly or with modifications, textures coming from Robert Stein III, under CC.
    - Mercari (use of Planet Dawn Texture)
    - Helios (use of Tao Seti Texture)
    - Hephaesti (use of Trantor texture).
    ------------------------------------------
    And textures from celestiamotherlode.net
    - Thartar (use of Boliverius Alvera Sagittarii v1 "moon 2" texture)

    Cool! Nice consistency
    I like the background textures a lot, especially on those desert-type planets. Are they composed from actual NASA photos?

    Neogea is awesome, and Hades is downright frightening. Such great work on these; keep 'em coming!

    This is amazing! You're really doing an outstanding job with these maps and you're also working incredibly fast! Can't wait to see the final sets of maps combined in the working interface thingy!

    That is some really cool sci fi-y stuff. Love it! But then again, you ARE the Sci Fi King (at least imo ), so no surprise there. Looking forward to more...

    Thanks, Mat! Not sure to understand your question. The textures are often done with satellite photos, indeed, sometimes from a very "small region", sometimes from large portions of earth. It's not always the case and I tend to mix a lot...

    Thanks, D! I used parts of old versions of Ersïa for the Neogea land shapes. And, I will !

    Not as fast as I wish... but well, I'm (still) working on 2-3 other maps meanwhile, so that's probably the reason why.

    Thanks my friend! You know that I'm doing those space systems + a planetary view for each world because I'm following one of your previous suggestion, right ?

    A good suggestion is indeed a cool thing ! I'm working on other things (commissions and my Tipeee) which are all fantasy. So, I guess that doing some sci-fi is kind of balancing thing, here.

    Thanks a lot, Chashio ! I'm very glad you like it.
