Rodger Young on approach...

Next glory shot will be the Young and sister ships in battle with bug plasma and such...maybe some dropships, if I get around to making them

engine glows on the roger young are brighter I think, azur like, and... in fact I'm wrong lol, there's no glow, just the blue lines on the exhaust I think. I found this effect to be easily found by making a plane in the engine, and applying a blue colour map with trans-fallof centered inside, and full self-illumination( 3ds3 terms sorry, I'm still searching how to self-illuminate a map in 3ds max2.5   )

Venom, yeah I know...but I really engine glows :P
And I was going for a very 'glowy' type of shot here anyway...:P

I can't help it...large amounts of bright energy have to glow...cause ti looks better that way...and I get to take a little artistic liscence   Besides, if they had hired me to do th eeffect in ST, they would have had engine glows :P

Lol you're right  
artistic liscence? Yeah, next year I'm definitively going to work on this (already taken in an art school   )(damn, I'm always wondering if what I'm saying in english makes sense lol).
For more glowing effects, Yoda would say:
"Plasma bug you will put, big ships explosions there will be !"
Rasczak would say ... hem, I better not tell what he would say, or the topic would be owned :b

Y'know those engines?  The top-left engine on the biggest set we see looks the best....it has the panel bright glow and the exhaust dark glow.  I know that's it's an artifact of complex lighting, but IMO that should be the standard look.
