Outer Space

To create this image of space and some planets in it, I followed the instructions given by my teacher for Photoshop. First we had to make a black background and add noise to it for the effect of stars. after that we added some color like nebula in a desired spot by painting over it. After that we had to find some textures that would work for a planet. I added that those textures to two circular shapes. after that I added a sphere shape to the planet. I then continued to add a shadow and outer glow to the planets. With that all done, one of the planets required a ring. I made a ring in a separate file and transported it over to make it.

These are the two textures I used for my planets. One of them I wanted to a dark kind of creepy planet surface and the other a sort of moon look to it. For the planets, I made a black circle shape and added these textures to it. to make it look more like a planet, I spherized them. After that, I added shadow and glow to my planet for a more realistic look.
