Planet Tutorial

Cinema 4D | View Link

For this tutorial you'll need to start out with a panoramic image. They're not hard to create, you can get professional lenses and tripods to make some killer panoramics. I created this image using a digital camera on a tripod, taking a picture each time I rotate the camera a few degrees. I then used Photoshop's Photomerge feature to create the image below out of 25 individual pictures.
