i would assume he did the rings by hand


its what i woulda done anyway


more of a human touche

Ashrak:  Nope

I got the basic starfield, dust, and nebula laid down.
Once I get the nebula complete, I'll hand it over to somebody.  Screw trying and learn UV mapping.  I've tried moddeling and texturing and nobody especially me liked the results
Anyway, I don't want to learn it.

*BTW, I've noticed something disturbing, Anon isn't really an Admin, is he?  I mean it was just something to get him to shut up about it, right?

[Taristin]

...you people are so naive. Do you honestly believe that someone who was banned 4 times will be made an admin?

[jdjtcagle]

....  I feel so stupid....  HA! Anon.... anyway, back to being me

BTW, It's way more than four times

Comments?

Very nice, including some of the pics you provided after these two...  One note though:

I think this one needs little work.  The cloud edges are too unrealistic.  They need to be more clumped less smudged.  Other then that, the works is absolutely fantastic.

My God!
This is something extraordinary. Too bad I don't use wallpapers, otherwise I would have hard time deciding which one to use.

SWEET

Oh, wouldn't we all want the bottom one skyboxed...
Damn, I'd have to repaint my Seth all over again so it'd be camouflaged

Well, I've finally got the second computer doing what it's supposed to be doing...





Getting there with the HyperVoxels, but they'll improve with practice

[Taristin]

Funny thing is, they look like gliteratto nebs.

[Flipside]

hehe Yep, 'frilly edges'...

It's because I made the procedural gradient inside the Voxel waaay too small, I'm still practising, but my latest one is looking a little less 'hairy'

[Taristin]

This is lightwave? I've not seen anyway to make voxels or hypervoxels in 3dmax, yet...

[Flipside]

Yep, they are quite useful once you get the hang of them, but take a bloody age to render

hypervoxel = max particles, but somewhat better ( max isn't great at that kind of stuff )

[dan87uk]
