Thanks. Have a look at the newer renders where I added some dust emissions from the comet.

This image is what it would look like at it's farthest point from the Sun. There are no geysers outgassing, so the comet must be in that state of deep freeze near absolute zero where all things go out in the Oort Cloud and beyond...

My intention was to replicate the feeling of the ESA fotos. I still have to explore more the displacement function of the software.

You did a marvelous job on the realism. Comets DO sleep. They only have tails when they move inside the orbit of Jupiter. Beyond that distance from the Sun, it is too cold for the comet volcanoes to be active.

Thanks a lot. Some time ago I did other shots of comets, that time with tail:
