Hi, friends, i need to recreate the sun´s corona with procedural shader nodes, but i am not good at all with that, i think its easy task, but i really dont know how to achieve, please anyone, can help me, i need to do something like this picture
thanks all
This is not easy task. Possible methods:
1.) Paint texture on Photosop etc. and use on circle mesh.
2.) Use particles with Glow.
I did that for a project I worked on earlier this year, see the sixth picture here.
If you are satisfied with the result, I can share the .blend file.
oh man, thats very close, can you share the blend, please? thanks very much
Here is the file: solar flares.blend (738.5 KB)
Keep in mind that the render was done in 2.79, you will get different results in later versions.
I considered making a tutorial at some point, but I figured out there was no interest in procedural solar eclipses (after all I’ve never seen a solar eclipse in a render, let alone a procedural one). If I can make it better, I might reconsider this option.
I thought about this the other day and my idea was to use something like the 3d voronoi texture with a volumetric emission shader.
Whilst this does work - I couldnt get to look streaky as what i’d need to do is scale the texture from the centre of the sphere outwards and I couldn’t figure out a way to make this possible.
thanks friend, thats amazing, a tutorial its a great idea. thanks again
