Post by: kasperl on April 13, 2003, 06:26:36 am: nice! just look at the top of the planet were day goes over to night, the atmosphere, it's kinda wierd. othet then that, move the neb more to the aft, make the sun in front of the neb, and use some more contrast and/or less brightness on the planet.

Post by: karajorma on April 13, 2003, 06:46:07 am: I don`t know if it can be called a render since you didn`t use a 3D package but it still looks pretty good :)

Post by: kasperl on April 13, 2003, 06:48:37 am: i just nnoticed, the lighting on the planet is kinda off, the day-night difference should bemoe away from the viewer, more to the left.

Title: My feeble attempt at a render....
Post by: Amon_Re on April 20, 2003, 05:13:29 pm: Hey Turnsky,

Small question, is it ok for me to use & abuse that second pic? It's great looking, and since i can't draw for the life of it, it'll probably be more abuse then use :)

Cheers,

Dude, that's a sweet render... :yes:
Title: My feeble attempt at a render....
Post by: Turnsky on April 21, 2003, 04:48:47 am: thanks, i only have photoshop and my imagination to work with, and that's what i came up with... it's a tad unfortunate that you can't make planetary rings in photoshop tho..

oh yeah, mention it to steak when you get the chance k? or better yet, show it to him...
Title: My feeble attempt at a render....
Post by: J.F.K. on April 21, 2003, 04:59:39 am: Yeah, no problem. I showed him some of your drawings, actually - pretty funny, he remembered you straight away when I mentioned your name. Maybe because you're an Aussie. :D

Anyway, we're on holidays; I phoned him last week and we talked for a while, he mentioned coming back here during our two-week break. Haven't seen him around, though.

Post by: Turnsky on April 21, 2003, 05:03:10 am: yes, he's missed out a lot... my attempt at render-like thingies, foxfire as well as other assorted furries and not forgetting my jedi drawings, i'm rather impressed on how those turned out...

AFAIK, he stayed away because there was too much attention-grabbing stuff here. I think I'm beginning to understand what he meant. :yes:

Post by: Turnsky on April 21, 2003, 05:13:06 am: anyway, check my last post in the foxfire thread, i answered the height issue...

Post by: Unknown Target on April 22, 2003, 06:37:48 am: Damn, that's good. I was hoping it would be less-than-adequete, so I could say something witty, like "Go back to drawing" or "was that an third-grade" :D :p
