RJB,
What was your ship's size?

Gotcha Thanks

Been working on something a bit different for the last day or so....

Spoiler:

First part in what could become a land base.... The above is a Turret tower (Minus said Turret )

Nice flyby killman

Looking better SDL

[Experiment 442]

I'm trying out different lighting effects:

A: Added a few lights

Spoiler:

B: Normal setup with no lighting

Spoiler:

C: A few more lights than A

Spoiler:

D: Spotlights

Spoiler:

Which one do I choose?

[Dr Lee]

one of the last two IMHO.....

[Experiment 442]

I'll go C for scenes I think. Has a more, what's the word, mysterious (?) style to it.

I'm doing a render with D lighting of the whole ship right now.

EDIT: on second thoughts, I'll go with C for whole ship shots. Spotlights make my ship look like a christmas tree with its textures at the moment.

good looking on the lighting 442 i intend to start tinkering with that myself pretty soon

Sneak Peak X - 305

( That's about twenty X-305s now... )

Show us all of it, I can't be a critic otherwise! lol

Big picture of Vis Uban... Doesn't fit on my screen. lol

Don't do what all of us have done in the past and start multiple WIPs at a time. I was trying to finish all my WIPs over the holidays and failed miserably. So I'm now concentrating on 'Therion ship design base' and 'Aria FGS-311-01'. One at a time bub.

I'm guilty of this... at one time i had 25 different meshes on the go at once....

Now it's a sedate..... 48wow... thought i had less
