Welcpme to the next part of the tutorial.
Next we need to add some subtle surface detail. We need just a hint of roughtness on the ground for mountains and such, especialy scince the vidsible part of our planet is in either early morning or late sunset and the light would be at a low angle accenting shadows.
Duplicate the rocky layer. (Layers>Duplicate Layer)
Now apply an Emboss Filter to the top layer. (Filters>Stylize> Emboss) Set the light angle to directly to the left, since that is the general angle the light is coming from. You can play around with the other settings till you get something you like.
Set the Embossed layer to Overlay. It should look something like this. Play with the brightness, contrast and opacity of the layer until you get something you like.
