These are the detailed shots of the planets I made for my God Tier Jade cosplay. They were made so they could be used for day and night usage.

Each were hand painted by me and haaah near the end I wanted to hurl myself off a cliff. I need to work more with the lights before next I use them. The checkerboard detail was done by hand by eyeballing where they should go and took the most time /sob/ It took about 2 days to complete the entire checkerboard.

To see what they look like in comparison to my Jade cosplay, here! [link]

I'm guessing you used glow paint something I thought everyone would catch on to but it seem not likely. Anyways beautiful job.

im really really sorry for asking a question about this, but these are really amazing.
I'm actually trying to make something like these for my cousin--like a night light kind of deal (not related to this or anything) and i was wondering what kind of paint you used that allows the light to shine through?
Arcylic blocks it, but its like. not transparent so it can't be glass paint and omggg i just cant figure it out.
imsosorry ff.
these are absolutely beautiful though,the detail is wonderful.

You are amazing XD This must have taken so long to do! I'm planning on making these planets, and I was wondering how you painted the ones on the bottom to make them look so foggy...? You've had a lot of questions in these comments, and I sympathize. ;A; But these are awesome.

Haaa, thank you! I need to get around to answering them. I was going to try and shoot for a tutorial once I get things in order.

But! for making them look foggy? Just some fine grit sand paper. By frosting it like that, you also get a surface that will hold paint better, too!

^^ you're welcome! and good luck with all those questions! 0.0 Thanks! I'm thinking of using either led light balls(if I can find good ones) or foam balls for the planets. I'm REALLY looking forward to painting checkerboards! -_- but I'll power through.

Yeeah the checkerboard had me in tears cause I slacked till the day before leaving for the convention. Just take it slow and map things out the best you can. I used a sharpie for the black parts then painted the squares over with black paint then waited for it all to dry before painting the whole inside white so it came out looking like the checkerboard.
