Rings Experiment #1 by exarobibliologist on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

Experimenting with an entirely different way of making planet rings.
The old way was to render Difference Clouds in Photoshop, but I started doing that back in 2004. There are so many new tools in Photoshop that I wanted to experiment with.

While my new method is similar, I'm using my JWildfire renders as the base layer, and using new Photoshop tools to tweak things.
(This also allows me to brag that the entire image was developed from multiple fractals rendered in JWildfire).

It's still an experiment, and I'm going to continue refining the process, so there will be many more ringed worlds created in the future... but for now, I present, Rings Experiment #1

All elements rendered in JWildfire Image composition and tweaking done in Adobe Photoshop 2020
