These are my creative sphere the on on top is from illustrator while the bottom one is the photo shop one.
   
Some things that were different was that the illustrator sphere was a lot harder to do because it had me make it in 3D in photoshop is had me change light to make it look 3D. There e was also the easier coloring on photoshop. Illustrator did however have a lot more options more me to mess with and make the sphere more detailed.
   
The illustrator sphere is actually interesting because it's not done. The tutorial had me make a cast net and delate it so only the dots would be left, but i made a mistake and only deleted the bottom half, but after seeing t i thought it looked a lot then what it would have been so i kept it.              
   
The photoshop on is exactly how it's supposed to be and i think it came out pretty good.
