I'm totally with ya on the muckin around thing...if I would just do it and leave it instead of playin around I could cut my time in half.
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.

status ... planets done, thinking about slicing up the zodiac pie
I've cut out all my planets as little round "paper dolls" to be dropped into Illustrator as PNGs.
I guess next I need to do something with the Zodiac wedges.
Then I'ma have to rotate the whole thing before I start laying in the info ribbons. I'm not sure how I'll handle the layers ... meh.
As a happy coincidence, as I work, WCPE is playing Holst's suite, "The Planets."A long-time fave, even if is it wayyy modern (I prefer the classical and romantic eras).
Venus Public Transit, Map Of Ceres, Jack Vance's Ports Of Call & Lurulu ... why do I only have 3 maps here?
The Planets is good, naturally Mars is the best and darkest part (right up my alley)...Jupiter is ok but Mercury and Neptune kinda lose me.

I thought this was beer foam or latte art at first

You are going to use pancakes in maps?
Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.
Gandwarf has fallen into shadow...
I *knew* I recognised that texture from somewhere....thanks Gand!
Hah! The answer is in the filename! Just downloaded it.
And you can do some funky stuff with a pancake I can tell you!

It's sort of like making your own clouds
