Grand Space Opera 3D Entry: Claus Kadrnoschka

[Grimreaper1981]

Hi, there...i'm looking forward for that cool challenge...first pics available on weekend :D

[iC4]

good luck and have fun ;)

[Grimreaper1981]

Well, some information 'bout my project that come into my mind, as i read the title of the newest challenge...


It'll take place in a universe, where human-colonization is on its beginning and a new colony is on the plan; the key-scene of that event will be a drop-down of landing ship in front of a new planet; what'll be on the surface? any kind of dangerous animals, some kind of intelligence,...noone knows....just the urge for the unknown...

the style of the ships will be very rough; no marvel of aerodynamic style, tubes and cables everywhere

i'll use 3ds MAX 6 and photoshop for that scene...as i said first sketches thru the weekend

cheers:)

[SirReality]

Sounds great. I look forward to checking in this weekend and seeing what you've come up with. I don't use Max at the moment, but I will be taking a class that uses it in the future. I think that's one of the neater things about these challenges is seeing what can be done in the different 3D applications.

Details added...

[Peddy]

the look is realistically dated, which will be something that stands out by looks of this competition so far.

Rough modeling of the turbines of the landing ship...to get a feeling for the proportions; still need some tweaking...
