Earth Renders

Here are some renders for the Earth that I've done, pretty simple stuff in finding the textures online then placing them into photoshop using a cutout filter to place on a sphere. The same was done with a cloud texture map where I have rendered out two different looks - one with cutout style clouds and one without. These clouds are on a different sphere with the transparency played around with. Now on to finishing the sphere with an atmospheric glow which will be placed on a third sphere surrounding the original.
