I like it! But theres one thing I'll say right here because I learnt from it and it helps... Town the resolution down to 1024x768. The pic looks empty around the edges and whilst it still looks great it would probably look better at the lower resolution (that and the fact it's almost everyones standard resolution so theres no worries with resizing...).

But great job dude!

One trick I use after it's all done...use ADC See (image veiwer) to convert to a jpg file...this was a 5 meg render tga,..ADCSee took it down to 47k  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

And who told you that  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif) [j/k]

That's a very nice job. Sparse, but that's okay. Now, to move onto thruster glows  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

Hella big, but sparsely populated  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

A bit less sparse than Gamma Draconis because it has a planet while Gamma Draconis doesn't have any. (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

I like the nebula background. Nice balance between colour and dark.  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

The planet looks........flat. And the Herc Mark IIs look very angular. Must be the shadows.
