Goonfella Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 yellowman - I think you might be right about the highlights. I`ll see what I can do. Stormy - I`ve been rumbled! Yes the wand was based on a tut but the background is all mine.It was a fairly easy tut to follow but was nice and colourful which was what attracted me to it. Just had a look to see if I can fix the wand but I`ve already merged the details so it`ll have to stay like it is.Never mind.

Lance McKnight Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Goon - Don't worry man. I'm pleased with your result. This just continue to prove that whatever tut is out there, PDN can do it, and it just require a little extra layer and thinking. I don't think I ever commented on your gallery banner, but I absolutely love it. Quote Officially retired from this forum. Have a nice day.

Goonfella Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 Thanks. It`s always interesting converting tuts for PDN . By the way you have already commented on the banner (p25) so thanks again. :wink: Quote Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atypicalcarl Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 The new wander is nice, but I'm still reeling over "lost." Great work here! I have a fondness for spacescapes (all of my desktops come from the hubblesite) and your spacescapes rock.

Goonfella Posted April 14, 2009 Author Share Posted April 14, 2009 Thanks welshblue. It`s a bit of a nuisance about the highlight but I don`t think it spoils the piece too much. atypicalcarl - thanks for the compliment. I`ve got a few Hubble wallpapers myself. I just completed a spacescape with Gimp . I tried the same tut as I did in PDN to see how they compare. I know it`s a Gimp pic but as your`re into spacescapes I think you`d be interested. Actually the stars in the background were made with PDN .Anyway here it is - http://i530.photobucket.com/albums/dd34 ... impact.jpg Quote Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kemaru Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 ... GIMP...? >: Oh well, I have it on my laptop too. I like it, it looks very real The smaller planet looks a little odd, though. Great job still! Quote Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule. |fb(page)|portfolio|blog| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goonfella Posted April 14, 2009 Author Share Posted April 14, 2009 PDN is still No.1 in my book though. Gets far more use than `the other one' Quote Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atypicalcarl Posted April 14, 2009 Share Posted April 14, 2009 I like it. It could probably use fewer flares for my tastes, but on the whole it's great.

Lance McKnight Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 Goon, just wanted to drop a quick line to say, "Damn nice sig!" :shock: I'm going to assume the space station I see is a render, but in any case, it looks awesome.

Goonfella Posted April 15, 2009 Author Share Posted April 15, 2009 Yes the station is a render and nebula is a brush . I wish I could actually make a nebula like this but there`s no chance! I`m not entirely happy with the text though. Different font maybe. It`ll have to be a new one because I never really fancied any of the ones I`ve got. I`ve also saturated it bit more now so the colours are more vibrant.

Goonfella Posted April 17, 2009 Author Share Posted April 17, 2009 I`ve just posted my latest work. Not sure whether to leave it as it is or add something else, such as a planet/moon system. It`s a sort of finished WIP (if there is such a thing!) It`s all PDN with the exception of a couple of cloud brushes and a few stars to help things along. PS- It`s nice to have the pictures back again :wink: Quote Please feel free to visit my Gallery on PDNFans And my Alternatives to PDN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HELEN Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I was happy when I saw the smilies again! Now back to business. I must say it's a cool image and I'd love to visit there. You always create such magical spacescapes. Beautiful job!

Goonfella Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 Thanks for the :shock: :shock: :shock: . Only thing is I feel that it needs something else but I`ve no idea what it is. Know what I mean? Maybe it`s just me not knowing when to stop. I`ve added a planet and moon but I`m still not satisfied.

Minoeman Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I would say one of your amazing planets, a comet, or a space ship. Quote We should all be...

Goonfella Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 Tried the planet and the spaceship but not the comet. Amazing that I never thought of doing one of them. I`ll give the comet a go, I`ve never done one before so it should be interesting. Good idea Minoeman.

yellowman Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Brilliant Goonfella, I feel is like a real photo from space, :idea: the shining stars are little big but that doesn't effect that much . If you are trying to add some new objects don't make them so detailed because that will kill the beauty of the nebula.

It is a photo. I took it in my spaceship coming from planet Zog. I agree though that the nebula is the main thing and I should not draw attention away too much.

LFC4EVER Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 On the nebula, try not to make it clear that you used clouds. Sort of distort them to looks like nebula-y clouds, but don't look like rendered clouds from a plugin. atm, they're not exactly like rendered clouds, but close. Colours are great, lighting too and starfield is good. It'll be even better if you add planets, comets etc. KIU. Quote ☆★☆★Merry Christmas★☆★☆ .::.My Gallery.::.Make Gold Text!.::.
