Description "the first test was a success. traveling through space for the first time has caused a breakthrough in mankind."

Hey everyone new piece, as i promised ive included a spaceship in the piece, that ive made in 3d max, it was a pain to get it to fit in the piece, i still dont know if it fits right.

All done from scratch, no stock work, except for the textures for the planets.
Tools used: Photoshop cs2, 3d max, terragen, world machine

time: around 8 hours

thanks to :

=tass123 for doing border, text again for me, and some minor adjustments, and suggestions on the piece.
=gucken for suggestions on the piece.

thanks for viewing.

That's a great piece. The landscape seems to curve, is this part of a ringworld?

Lots of action going on in this picture...it makes it really come to life. Nice level of detail. I even like the atom structure planet rings which I almost never do. Great work!

I love this, dont get me wrong, I do, but if this isnt supposed to be Battlestar Galactica, then I'm wondering why you have Battlestars as your ships. If it is, then perfect!

no idea haha, i wasn't using any reference when i was modeling the ship, i just modeled it out of my imagination.

I hope you're aware of Infinity: Quest for Earth.

Please check it out, it's a space game in development where the gameplay will be seamless from space travel to planetary exploration. You will be able to own planets, hire NPCs, build and manage cities and space stations, etc.

The gameplay is NOT RPG style, there's no levels, no skills. You have to learn how Newtonian physics works and how to aim your ship. That's why it's going to be freakin awesome.

My mission is to change the concept of how music should sound in the game... I think the genre of music could really be improved for what they are doing now. ANYWAY, go check it out.

Well it seems everyone else has critiqued all possible flaws, But there is only one thing that they missed that bothers me and I see it a lot in Terragen renders.

In real life, if there is fog or haze in front of a mountain, the mountain will still be darker than the surrounding sky ( unless its covered in snow or some other pale material ) But at the top of the nearest points, inside the planet, they are brighter because of fog and appear to be glowing.

But as far as atmosphere and lighting goes, the distant area on the right looks great !

Akajork [2007-09-28 22:14:36 +0000 UTC]

hmm I think this pic lacks of quality you achieved in previous work.. Ill give you my 2cents: the landscape is too CG and it looks to me like an unfinished render.. it's also a really unrealistic landscape (witch ofcourse can be ok) but if you do something like that you should make it more detailed and look more like a matte rather then a render.. becuase now it looks fake and too CG at the same time.. doenst work. The upper ship is really distracting and should be removed.. now it looks like you have 2 lightsources but then the light on the planet and landscape is all wrong.. so that looks weird. The planets are being lighted by the top flare, but the flare on the horizon seems way brighter.. isnt making any sence. Now the space is nice if you look at the colors but the composition is.. well its just not there.. Its kind of a mess and isnt really looking nicelly for the eye. Try to make a pattern for the viewer to follow so you can 'read' the image..

I know this sounds like alot but its just the things I can see that you could improve its advice!! congrats on your DD btw! that piece is awesome
