Planet Glow

I have started my planet and it looks really cool. But I can’t get the glow on the planet!! I’ve tryed adding another sphere and making it transparent, that dosen’t work, and I’ve tryed the halo but that produces it’s own light and i don’t want to do that.

I need help fast!

Thx in advance

Hello fellow canadian, and welcome to the forum:D
There are many tutorials out there on making a planet atmosphere… I think there was one in the blenderart magazine on space.
EDIT: Yeah, it’s here

Oh thank you,

I’m very new here so thanks man.:cool:

No problem.
Yes, I noticed you had one post at the time. You can’t get much newer than that:D
Edit: And if you don’t mind, just out of curiosity, where in Canada do you live? Toronto area would be cool… since there is a blender meeting being organized.

I live in southern Manitoba, I wish i was in Toronto at least you guys have some stuff going on, lol:)

lol, yeah:)
But not as much as you’d think;)

Each time I roam, Toronto is
Callin’ me home, Toronto is
Why I just grin like a clown
It’s my kind of town.

My kind of town, Toronto is
My kind of town, Toronto is
My kind of razzmatazz
And it has all that jazz …
And each time I leave, Toronto is
Tuggin’ my sleeve, Toronto is
The Rogers Center, Toronto is
The Union Station, Toronto is
One town that won’t let you down
It’s myyyyyyyy kiiiiiiiind of towwwwwwwn…
