Titan

I never liked the planet models available here on the hive, so i decided to make my own set. Here's Titan, Saturns largest moon. It is the only moon in our system to have atmosphere, and its features are not unsimilar to that of the Earth, except its lakes, rivers and rain consist of liquid methane and ethane rather than water.

To add a sense of depth, these planets have a modeled shadow effect tied to the head bone. This means you can control the orientation of the shadow by locking the "head" body part facing towards your star/light source, and the planets back will be shaded! If you also script your planets to orbit around the star, you will get a really cool effect. If the planet is static, you can ofcourse just adjust its facing instead.
