Dried up planet earth Low-poly 3D model

While we all hope it would not come to it, there is a chance that in the future, the earth might go trough a big apocalypse. Nukes, meteorites, solar flares, run away climate change etc. All of these things might end up scorching our surface. If you ever need to display what the result of this might look like, than this is the model for you. This model also contains an optional night time emission map, in case your scenario contains the surviving remnants of human civilization.

This model is part of a series, see my page for variation of this apocalyptic world.

Technical information • Render ready for blender cycles • Subdivision ready • Low Poly • Usable for real time render • Quads only for optimal performance • Contains normal HD textures for regular model use (8k) • HDRI background image included (8000 x 4000) • All textures are unique originals • Contains albedo, roughness and displacement maps • Contains separate atmosphere and alpha maps for the atmospheric layer

Model is made up out of an inner sphere for the planets surface and a outer sphere for the atmosphere. Because of this, the alpha texture must be connected to the outer sphere, or the planets surface will not be visible during rendering. In the .blend file, this is already pre set up.

In real life, this planet would have a diameter of around 12.742 km in diameter. Some 3d programs do not display objects of this size very well. In order to avoid complications, and because most users want to decide the exact diameter themselves, the model itself is not scaled to the real life size.
