Description Another preliminary scene using bryce 5 and Photoshop 7. Alot of work still to do, mainly aligning the ships a bit better, and alot of lighting work, and the addition of some laser fire. I need to thank Nadab Goksu, and Michael Kane for the use of their beautiful models and textures!

cool, but you shuld realign the orientation of some of the white stars, they are all tipping their port (left) wings down it's just odd that they are ALL doing that. cool renderings, though!

I don't know about that. The ships in the pic. are models I downloaded off the web that other, more creative people using better software than I have made. I just stick them into frame, although I did the nebula pic. myself. alot of people don't like Bryce, but I love it, it's easy to use and can produce some pretty good effects.

Well, you are still ahead of me when it comes to Brycing, methinks.

Interested? Well, I was fanatical about it for four years until Ted Turner decided to buy it along with everything else good in the world, and turned it into shit. I can remember seeing "It's a wonderful life" every Christmas until that J.P. Morgan wanna-be bought it. Now I have to go to the video store and shell out a couple of bucks a year just to see it! Why does he do it I wonder? I can almost see the meeting...

Ted: "I bought Babylon 5 today."

Corporate Lawyer: "Really, I LOVE that show! One of the best in syndication today."

Ted: (Nods his head in agreement) "Too good if you ask me. That's why I'm gonna find some old soap actress and make her the Captan. Then, hire a skinny Fabio look alike to be a teep, and derail Strazcinski's excellent plot with a bunch of stereotypical bleeding heart bullshit."

Coroprate Lawyer: "That's an excellent idea!"

Ted: "Of course it is, it's my idea. Now get the Frag outta here WCW is commin on! Jane? You on the phone with those damn Vietnamese communists again?"


Yeah, I guess you could say that I WAS interested in it.

lol. things like that take time. i dont' have the patience for it anymore, so i stick with photography. atleast a half hour to an hour in a darkroom to get the perfect picture isn't like, 18-50 hours on a piece like that. (which some people spend less or more time than that )

well, just remember that getting that education could be the only thing between your career as an artist, or diggin ditches for septic tanks! Been there, done that, would like to forget about it! But believe me when I say that time just keeps slipping by you faster and faster as the years go on. Hell, I'm 30 going on 65!

heh. that's alright, i'm 20 going on 40 the college education isn't SUCH a huge thing if i've got a kick ass portfolio, but i dun know. i still havn't figured out what i want to do with my life. i keep hoping that some rich doctor will just appear and whisk me away to the leisure life or something. lol

I thought I wanted to be once, but then I became aware of the malpractice suit, so I got really depressed cause I was taking pre-med and had geared myself toward that all through high school, and then the drugs kicked in. A few drafting classes later, and several lousy jobs, I got a nice comfy union job. Now a make a decent living, and sell my art when I have the chance. Never wanted to be super rich, although I wouldn't turn it down. Nowadays I just plan for the revolution, and watch, and... wait. All hail Discord!

lol. i don't want to be super rich. if i could make enough to live in y hole and do artwork and not have to worry about whether i'm going to have electricity or not, i'll be happy. right now, i photograph toddlers part time at the JC Penney portrait studio. NOT what i want to do with my life i've found out (big suprise) so i'm still careerless...

I was the kid who lured his parents in to a false sense of security until that fateful night when I came home drunk after wrecking the car on the neighbor's yard fence, puking all over the house, and passing out in the backyard with lipstick all over my face and my fly wide open.

LOL! now THAT is a story to tell the kids. yeesh. no. i was the one who, even when grounded, never cared and still did everything she could to do whatever she wanted. now, because i'm an adult, and living in my mothers home so i can have free rent while i'm in school..... when i don't do what she wants, i get that "i'll kick you out" speech. needless to say, i'll be homeless in february, cause when the lease is up, her and her fiance are moving away, and leaving me to fend for myself.
