A Galaxy in Max R3?

does anyone know how i can either make a galaxy mesh, or anywhere i can get one.

I am creating an animation where the camera will start outside our galaxy, move very quickly in, passing stars, asteroids, planets, nebula's, etc.

I'm using max r3, if you know of any tutorials please let me know.

thanks

mmm wrong location

yeah, seems so, dosn't matter, i think i figured it out good enough for now. I used a program called Universe (www.diardsofware.com) to create a nice looking galaxy, then just mapped it onto a squashed sphere, i'm rendering an animation now, i'll post it in a day or so, if it looks good.

next i have to do a solar system

You'll probably get more responces in the request forum. Moving it there for you.
