Planet Sydney. Planet Joshua Tree. Planet Kyoto. Sadly, you can't visit any of these worlds, but you can make your own.

God, enough with the Mario Galaxy posts.

I remember doing this with my parents' street when I was in college and someone gave me my first copy of Jeremy Birns' Digital Lighting and Rendering. It's a really neat thing to do, and it takes about no time.
