Granted, I have a limited grasp of TS, and most effects are done P.P., take a look, and tell me what you think...

 

Worthy?

Believe it or not... my PC hates me... betwween ICQ refusing incoming file transfers, my PC crashing nonstop, and TS rendering odd angles...  

That scene was originally a fleet movement, but somehow I got that weird angle... but it looked cool, so I kept it...

Also... There were like 90 ships in the original png file... :-/ and that thing blowing up, well, it was a typhon, but it rendered only like 5 peices, so I made it like that...

That angle is what makes the pic, IMHO. If not for the angle, what is left? A blurry picture of a couple of Loki's, a section of a Setekh, and something in the bG that I assume is supposed to be the explosion of something - looks more like.... ummmm... uhhh... I have no idea, to be honest...

But because of that angle, I think the pic is quite high up there on the coolness scale!  

EDIT: Needs stars and nebulae, though...

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

I've found that MAX is best for modelling, LW for general mapping (don't have it anymore   ) and Cinema 4D XL6 for animations.

Hehe, I've got MAX, C4D and half of Lightwave6. If I can get ahold of a pic of Todd from the V-Art, I'm gonna use C4D to make a render of the "Todd-O-Love", an inflatable friend. Mainly as revenge for banning me.
