This tutorial shows how I made the rings for the planet in Man-O-War

10

This is the other texture I made, note the half black half white button the arrow points to, this will INVERT that picture below, so inverting the Alpha channel.












Look at the difference this does! Giving you a radically different appearance, now there is more space in the rings, than material.

And here we can see the finished results:


LEFT has transparency in the inital image, with feathering in the Alpha channel giving a fine, partially transparent ring.

MIDDLE: Opaque, broad rings with clear well defined spaces.

LEFT: the Inverse of the middle ring, this one has very little material and is mostly space!
