Following my question in p.advanced-users about toroidal patterns, this
is a first test for a kind of Milkyway. One shows it from the centre,
this other image is an overview of the torus used.

A very preliminary wip.
A used a couple of tricks to make believe. Background stars using Chris
Colefax's galaxy macros; Milky Way dust lanes by an emission and an
absorption media inside a torus; Milky Way stars by a gauss distribution
of spheres in an elongated box.

The results are still irregular but this is another interesting view by
rotating the torus to another position. 20000 Milky Way stars by the way
like in previous image. Image renders in about 2 minutes.

A fundamental step forward although hardly distinguishable from previous.
Background stars again using the galaxy macros by Chris Colefax;
Dust lanes by several emission and absorption media, concentrated into
torus-like density patterns. The difficulty resides mainly in applying
interesting turbulence patterns;
40K stars in the Milky Way plane represented by (write/read) randomly
rotated spheres on the edge of a circle (radius = major radius of the
media torus), only selected if visible in image, and moved outside of
the plane by a random gaussian distribution;
Total render time of this image is about 5 minutes (only read). Writing
the positions first takes a couple of minutes more.
I am quite satisfied of what I achieved. Comments appreciated at this stage.

But this is even better I guess :-)
Again, a few fundamental changes make all the difference.

Oh yes, this is much better!

I think it is a matter of taste but both last images are interesting in
their own way.
That said, I am more or less at the end of my capacities now.
