Extra Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 This is a space background I am working on at a request from a friend. The Extra Studios watermark will be replaced by something else. 1280x1024. Suggestions for improvement and *ahem* constructive criticism always welcome. http://barak.lyons.googlepages.com/ESSpacePh1.jpg BTW, the spaceship is made using GMax, a free 3D program I use a lot, so, though the image is not 100% PdN, it is 100% original. It is a crappy jpeg to save a bit of space. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elberet Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 though i'm not a specialist i think you should blur the planet's edges to make it look more realistic,because now it looks like waffle ^^ and I like shadows on it very much. and planet edges ought be more scratched so we could believe there really are craters and canyons. o.you made a joke. crappy jpeg (showing space) to save space. you can save whales with it too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Lionhearted Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Not diggin' the ship so much...looks out of place with the relative realism of the background. My (constructive ) criticism would be to focus on making the ship more...er...realistic. As much as one can make a "spaceship" realistic...

Extra Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 :shock: You're amazing! As for me, how is this ship? It is moving into a shipyard of some kind. http://barak.lyons.googlepages.com/ESSolarScifijpg.jpg [EDIT] It is still a crappy jpeg, the final will be png.

Helio Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 What's this? Competition?!? NEVER! :twisted: kidding! ---- Anyway, I made two updates to the Distant Titan: First, a better, more shaded, version of the original: Second, a version just for fun. Alert: GIMP was used. Very explosive, that! v An excellent open–source strategy game—highly recommended. "I wish I had never been born," she said. "What are we born for?" "For infinite happiness," said the Spirit.

GangstaCrab Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Second, a version just for fun. Alert: GIMP was used. BOO the GIMP! j/k I can't get used to any other program's UI after using PdN, they all seem so foreign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
usedHONDA Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 GIMP is foreign to anybody that uses it.... even long time users!

Helio Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 How did you do that sun in the first pic? On a new layer, make a white, radial gradient (with the secondary color's alpha turned down to 0) where you would like the star/sun. Then apply Dents very slightly, and, finally, use Zoom Blur Deluxe. Adjust layer blend modes, maybe duplicate the layer to give a more intensive star. Voila! Boy, I'm done with spacescapes... for now. BOO the GIMP! j/k Very Happy I can't get used to any other program's UI after using PdN, they all seem so foreign. I know, it's a real pity, it has many wonderful tools and effects. Oh well... ...just wait until they're released with PDN! v An excellent open–source strategy game—highly recommended.

Jezulkim Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 @Helio: I copied your ideas on my work. Don't kill me! Very heavy lens flares! Be careful.

Bob Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 @Extra: lack AntiAliasing. In fact expand rendering size (it's from 3D right?) and maybe quality should do the trick. No. Way. I've just seen Bob.

usedHONDA Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I think that render came from the Google Sketchup gallery.

Dr. D Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I think it's pretty good, maybe a bit too much red. Here's my latest space scene! It's probably one of my best ones yet. Does it look good, or should I change something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 I like the dots thing (Halftone?). Dr D your space scene is good too. No. Way. I've just seen Bob. And... *poof!*—just like that—he disappears into the mist again. ~Helio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
