[new landscape]

Thanks David.

 

I did some messing around in gimp and upped the contrast. It seems to make the DOF stand out more.

 

This looks great! Is there any chance you could try rendering with toon shader? I have a 2D project coming that will require a dense forrest similar to your scene and I'd like to see how what you've created looks.

 

Thanks!

[Cylon Raider]

Well, here are my beginnings on the Raider. Haven't had much time to work on it. This ship poses some interesting challenges due to it's organic style shape, but this is AM, organic is the name of the game for this program!

 

 

Looking great! You're doing what I do - hitting a writing rut, heading into A:M to release frustration... and hopefully find inspiration.

 

How's your script coming btw?

[siren lights...]

does anyone have or know where i could get a siren that rotates with lights? the kind that sits on top of police cars, ambulances, fire trucks etc? something that looks like this.

 

Are you using it as "toon" render or 3D? I ask because with toon, you can just model a dome and animate the red/blue alternating lights - not a lot of detail... for 3D, same thing unless you want up close detail... the viewer won't see the rotation inside the light, just the resulting light...

Now is one of the tricky parts as I have no exact references, just fish eye views and angled pics, but I have begun work on the interior of the cockpit:

What scale are you using? (I decided to work on the Galactica... unless someone else has?)

 

Anyone want to take on a Cylon Raider and a Raptor?
