Is there a full model of the Moon in the store here?

..I thought I remember seeing a full model of the moon, similar to the Mars and Mercury planetary models however the store search has been useless ever since the software change.  I just picked up Planet Earth Ultra HD in Fastgrab and thought having the moon as well would be great for space images. NASA has a free 3d model but I don't believe it's in a format that is useable in Daz. .

    if it is a spherical texture like I have, whack it into the bump channel of a sphere

    displacement too if you subdivide it heaps and want a closeup

    ...the one I saw was different and when I attmepted to extract it with 7-Zip I got an error message.

    Downloaded both file and will play with it later today when i get up.  I take it this has to be applied to a sphere primitive.  

    However, I still thought I saw a full model either here or in one of the other stores.

    In addition to the ones in the thread this one can be converted from obp to obj using meshconvert.

    Maybe you are thinking of Solar System from Flipmode. There was also the Earth and Moon Super Bundle (ReadMe) from Juice3d, long gone. The models are decidedly lo-res by today's standards.

    well, typing "moon" into sketchfab resulted in upwards of 5 useable moon models including lunar terrains

    ...I downloaded the files Wendy mentioned.  Crikey that displacement map file is huge at 16K.resolution. just over 1 GB.  The nice part about this one it was actually mapped by the orbiting probe and thus also includes backside details.

    ...couldn't it also be converted in Hexagon or Blender?

    Moons and backsides kind go hand in hand.

    The Celestia astronomy program has an addon archive with models and textures for planets and spaceships, fictional and non, including (in some cases) maps for Normals, Bump, and other parameters. Here's the page for the Moon downloads, the others are in the floating menu on the left side. You can apply them to the Surfaces pane of a sphere primitive.
