Title: Alternate Paths Render
Post by: Stunaep on April 15, 2002, 02:39:50 am
I was sitting here doing nothing (I'm sick, so I can't go to school, or anywhere else farther than 50 meters) so cooked up an Alternate Paths render. Here it is, post comments below:

Not bad. :):yes: I like your use of motion blur on the nearby Hercs; things would look real sweet with some real engine glows on those fighters (mark that down on your to-do list of things to learn).

Nice job. Keep it up. ;)

Yeah, the text is more visible than the render itself...

I don't like the red glowing text, LTnarol also used it for a few of his renders.. I would try to avoid glowing text it messes up the render.
Other then that it looks prety good.

Point taken: [glow=red]Red glowing text[/glow]= BAD.

Well, it has its uses. (Next to Thunder's face, yelling "SILENCE!", for example.) Just not here. ;)

Not only does it not fit, but it burns the eyes with the contrast. Also, WHAT IS THAT THING BEHIND THE ORION? It's rather strange. And do something with the thruster glows besides brightening them...try making them glow! :D
Good render
