Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Point light special glow fx

Hi there.
I am making a space scene. I just finished on creating the earth. I am now trying to create the sun. I am using a point light with the special fx on it for the glow. But i placed the point light behind the earth, but when i render you see the glow going treu the earth. It is just going treu my objects.

I hope someone can help me with this problem.
Thanks anyway, and keep up the good work!user added image user added image


Don't be afraid of what you can see, but be afraid of what you cant see.
