I want to create something like picture on the entrance page of
www.planetside.co.uk
I want to create a moon (or two moons, or giant planet, whatever) over the
landscape, behind the clouds. This is effect that you can see if the moon is
visible during the daylight. You can see white halfmoon, with craters and
stuff, and the other half in the color of sky.
Is it possible without cheating (I mean no discs, Boolean objects and stuff
like this)? I am aware that this effect is result of atmosphere's
influence on light (the reason why the sky is blue). Can it be simulated in
POV?
