What do you think? :)


@Razor: I can send you the model or put it for d/l, when finished.

Edit:





Whoa. :eek:

well i haven't seen a original episode in a long time.. so my knowledge of old ST vessels is a little rusty:)

do not torment the sleep deprived artist, he may be vicious when cornered,
in case of emergency, administer caffeine to the artist,
he will become docile after that,
and less likely to stab you in the eye with a mechanical pencil

Excellent :drevil:
But don't send me the model with spikes, I love it just the way it is on the previous renders. PM me the download link when ready. By the way, do I need to worry about the size?

Currently it's a bit over 4 mbs. I would expect 3-4 mbs d/l.

More stream lined now. :)

I thought I posted these, but apparently not (can't remember).  I hope, I didn't post 'em somewhere else on the board. Weird... :o

Dang, dude! I hope you're keeping copies of earlier versions, since all 3 different kinds of pics you've posted rock!

And it looks more than ever like a ****** ship. :D

"...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.

Yikes. I've never seen anyone pull off organic-ish modelling convincingly before (with the exception of the Kier Darby's WhiteStar). Totally sweet. :yes:

Too much reliance on ambient lighting IMO - needs something more dynamic.

That's what makes it all the more better. Can't wait to see your skills continue to improve. :):yes:

Sandwich's right on this last one, btw: it'd probably look better with some more defined shadows and highlights. :cool:

We sat through two years of graphics class together. The problem was, our teacher was absolutely pants, so I ended up doodling in Paint while Setekh browsed... well, this place. (Some things make a lot more sense now, like when he started going on about some guy in Israel who sent him some cool music... I guess that would be you, Sandwich.) All the stuff I learnt about graphics, ironically, I ended up learning from him. :D

He said a lot more things about HLP, but I forgot most of them. I think I remembered him talking about you because I asked him later how he knew someone in Israel. He explained, but then he started talking about the entire FreeSpace storyline, and my mind must have wandered... it all makes sense now, I feel a bit like Neo after taking the red pill, then ending up here.

Eddie turned me off PhotoShop... though we had it on the school computers, he told me not to use it if I could help it, because he said it 'ran like a sloth', ate up too many system resources, and cost too much. I didn't argue with him, me being the graphically inept person I am... he said something about using his own program, I forgot the name, and he showed me it once at his house... we tried to get it running on my computer for months but it simply refused to work. So I never got into making pictures like he did. But I can sure critique stuff... :D
