Texturing and transperancy

Recommended Posts

Im having a heck of a time with this one. Im working on a planet shot of SATURN and the globe itself is fine but doing the rings is killing me.

 

Found some MAPs for transperancy as well as a separate one's for color. Nothing I cant duplicate my self but the problem is that it is just a cross section of the disk. Basically when you look at it, its just bands of various color or lines contained in a rectangular framed picture ( if you can figure out that discription). I have no idea on how to get the one stamp to repeat itself around a selected axis so that when it renders you get bands of transperancy around the disk. Does that make any sense? I have been beating my self up over it for 6 hours now and I figure I would ask you guys incase you know a better way.

Hi

 

this came up in a thread in 2006 - there are multiple ways but this might be the fastest, easiest:

essentially one can use patch images (not decals) on a 2Dish type ring.

 

please don't hesitate to ask more questions, if there is not enough info in that thread
