I can only chime in to what the others said - this is pretty cool already!

Yes, dramatic!

For the ground, how about this. In the scene I am currently working on 
since October last year (no info is provided until further notice ;-) ) 
I use a piment_pattern controlling several image_maps of stony grounds. 
The pigment_pattern itself is also a stony ground image_map. Then 
uv_mapped on a mesh, but an appropriate height_field would also do.

Of course. No problem. Please find an .inc file in p.b.scene-files under 
the subject "Tatoine ground". Note that the code was primarily generated 
by Poseray; I then built the final code from that, which means that you 
may find some redundant code that can be avoided by the purist (I was lazy).

Let me just lift a little tip of the concealing veil :-) This is how the 
final pattern looks like (with addition of some scattered stones).

I like it very much, especially the texture of the walls and the sky.
May I suggest some swirling sand in the atmosphere?
