Title: They are Coming...
Post by: Reaperman on August 27, 2002, 05:30:28 pm
They have taken the bridge and the second hall. We have barred the gates but cannot hold them for long. The ground shakes, drums... drums in the deep. We cannot get out. A shadow lurks in the dark. We can not get out... they are coming.

A quote from LotR on a B5 picture...

If you quote a fantasy book in a CG render based on a sci-fi TV show, does that make you a triple geek? And if so, can we give him a wedgie?

It's not a bad render, but that capship tiling texture has been around town a few too many times. If I can recognize a bleeding texture map, it's overused.

It's (unfortunately) the generic B5 texture map, it's on most of the EA ships.

*Gives Stryke an EVA suit and a paint gun with a tether to a dozen colors inside the ship.*

Well don't just float there, go be creative with it!

No, its not. Some of the names pay homage to LOTR but its not based on LOTR at all.

If you're obsessed with LOTR, everything's a LOTR reference, of course.

Hey, that'd be kinda funny if you were watching, say, the presidential debates: "See, he keeps talking about the great iron 'lock-box', or vault, of the Morhillisbungulghars, but that was magic mithril, and nobody ever put anything in until in chapter 14 of book 6 when..."

Hmm. I think I'll stick to drinking games.
