Earth in Blender

I only got halfway through Blender Guru's video but I recommend watching it to learn about Blender's node system and texturing if you're new to 3d like I am. This is literally just 3 spheres, 2 with NASA images and bump maps on them (Earth and the clouds) and the last one for the blue atmosphere which is just transparent.

Blender Guru also teaches you how to add city lights to the dark side of the Earth, how to add a space skybox and a sun and moon in the video

All the required textures are in the description on youtube

That's really cool! I hadn't heard of Blender Guru until you mentioned it.

Now, don't forget to take a break from Darwin Project and learning 3D #art to take a look at the new raunchy story (#nsfw) by @jjay, and upvote if you like it.

Keep up the great work!

I also needed to look at Blender (normally i work with Maya) for reasons, and just discovered Blender Guru on YT. I've learned a lot after only 2 Minutes. Cool guy.

Regards ;)
