How to make a sun (as a part) look more realisitc?

So, I want to make my sun look more realistic. I’ve added already a sun flare (Billboard GUI) but it doesn’t really look good. I haven’t found any answers.


Edit: I’ve already tried decals, looks bad.

Add CMEs using particle emitters that emit very slowly, becoming larger and more transparent over time.
As for the texture, you could probably try experimenting with special mesh forcefields, specifically a ball just slightly larger than the actual sun itself. It might need a bunch of tweaking though.
I’ve never done this before but at some point in the future I’m gonna need to do something like this since I’m making a spaceflight simulator, so I might come back to this.
Hope this helps!
