fast coloring...I´m not sure in the battleships desing´s and colours....

Sugestions?

[midget]

Looks great, whats the story behind it?
How come the planet only has cities (assuming there cities) at the two poles of the planet?

[Bael]

Wow, with a style like that I almost hate to see it go 3D (this will be a 3D piece right?).

My only suggestions at the moments are that the object at the bottom is too blurred - so blurred it almost counts as just blank space. My opinion, either sharpen it up a bit (so you can tell what it is at least), or crop the bottom entirely. Maybe make it a creature making some goofy face while holding onto the debris, would kinda fit. :)

[Haamu]

That's one badass ship or a very small planet...or is it a moon. Not very dense moon either if a ship can fly through it. But either way I love the style.

[tsunami4you]

I love your style!!! Why not go for the 2D!! You are great What are you using for painting? :bounce:

[pluMmet]

My suggestion is that a planitary body (even a moon) has some type of molten core. Given how round that body is it should have some sort of ozzy lava type stuff spewing out of the cracks. Looking good as an image though!

[Lotus7]

concepts looking reaaly nice! just give us some more info on the story behind it!

[BookMansBlues]

LOL just plain awsome. She looks like a pure bread but steers like a cow! :)

Good Luck.

[cg219]

WOW, That is a great concept. And thats a quick color?, lookslike it took a hwile to me. Nice job. That is also a very big Ship or small planet. I cant wait to see more. Keep us posted :thumbsup:

[Borro]

Excellent work on the concept :) Keep rocking and post soon!

[Versiden]

whoa.. awesome concept!
something went wrong with the navigation systems huh ;p

[Gattigen]

I really like your concepts. cant wait to see more.

[splotch]

lovly sketch
nice start i loved your color
keep rocking and show 3d soon

[element5]

Love the concept, awesome colouring too :thumbsup:

Thans en advanced for all coments...
first a little description...

The image is based on the disappearance of the first Iset moon.

The investigations carried out after the facts point to a geometric deviation in the navigation maps as the cause of the event.

Result: of the hundred of millions of inhabitants of this great moon, only escaped
some thousands, and that thanks to the quantity of ships placed around the whole planet whose majority resource was the trade and supply with the colony. -

The biggest political repercussion was the lost of the house of Anteosh, leaders' dynasty and navigators that they governed (and quite well for
certain,) in this sector of the galaxy. Then the chaos, successive wars for the control of the trade destabilized the communication with the colonies
and they created an unstable area in all the aspects.

Once located historically, we will locate ourselves visually,... in the image very varied styles of ships must be seen that would identify different

merchants' races and navigators, all escaping radially from the planet in forecast of the shock wave that an explosion of the planet could
become.

The main caracter a ship-world Ardhana that impacts very slowly against the moon and for that reason it crosses it and doesn't destroy it.

The rest explosions, etc...

Thank you

[Miss Hippo]

Hey,

love your concept....i also like your 2d sketch...very unique and very colorful. I have one comment on ur modeling of the planet or the moon. It's just that it looks like a soft balls that has been pinched in the middle. It doesn't look like something has crashed into it. The edges of the moon shouldn't be inwards and it looks like it has wrinkles on it. Hope it this helps you rather than confuses u. Good luck!

[Clanger]

What a great idea, looking forward to see this develop.
One thing you might want to consider is; I'd guess such a huge space ship hit the moon would look like an aeroplane diving into the sea with a huge ripple racing around which would probably just fly off into space as it went.

[oneir0s]

After thinking of the designs of the ships, I have decided that it could be more dramatic an impact of two non aerodynamic objects.

I have reflected the suggestions of Miss hippo and the good idea of the clanger wave that you will see in the next one post.

Thanx for your time

I believe that it has won dramatic character, with the new design and that of the ripples seems me a success. Some suggestion?.

A greeting.

[Doublecrash]

Cool so far!


A big bang in outer space. Lookin' forward to see how it progresses.

Stefano

[centavrus]

realy cool! i think you could also illuminate the ship with random tiny lights coming from inside of it :)

[oneir0s]

yes at the moment I am worried for the positions and the designs of the ships but thank you by the suggestions, I will need them and a lot for to shade and to illuminate.

Thank you

[element5]

very cool :thumbsup:

[ChrisThatGuy]

Very nice, although wouldn't a moon fracture too, not just ripple? Maybe a few large cracks could add to the effect.

[cloudz]

very cool... wut software u using?

[oneir0s]

The soft is maya...

[oneir0s]

Very nice, although wouldn't a moon fracture too, not just ripple? Maybe a few large cracks could add to the effect.
yes he already has some I think to add particles effect and clouds too, but the intention was that the impact was very slow. As if the collision took place when the ship brakes.

Thanks.

[Borro]

this and a really cool camera angle and it'll look gorgeous :) :bounce: waiting for more :scream:

[EngineeredVision]

Nice work. I like the overall composition, but I think I would like to see a dissipating atmosphere on the planet. It might add just another degree of massiveness to the scene so that the audience realizes that this is planet and not a barren moon. Although, if it's intended to be a moon then I think it's fine.

[kaajey]

Maybe you should add some dust near the collision place
and a little atmosphere would be fine as for me...





See this one:

[plaguelord]

nice idea, I think its full of action and epic feeling, also the models looks very good, keep updating!

[oneir0s]

Thank you for the advices.

I haven´t time to dedicate to this. And that helps me.

[arturro]

That is what I call a crash:twisted: But seriously, it looks great, the mood is wonderful. But I would light it up a litle bit. It seems to dark to me, and the detalis are hardly seen. But of course I wouldn't use white light to make it brighter, only red/orange/firey and maby a litle blue from the left. Good work so far:thumbsup:

[markovicd]

hohoh... already light !
immpressive scene... !

[oneir0s]

You are right, the darkness hinders the scene reading. Í will try to change the light.

Without lights white ,... ok nice idea. :thumbsup:

Thank you.
I´m to leave the work to have but time ( boss only is a joke.) :twisted:

[Larsen]

huge scene qnd great collision effect:thumbsup: , do you use the shatter effects or do you model each fragmented pieces ?

I definitely want to see more, great start again !

[Andrey_SE]

Great collision!

Are there going to be some other objects in the scene? I see that collision as a part of background and there are other ships around observing that emergency situation and may be some characters emotions on foreground.

Keep it up! Waiting to see more!

[oneir0s]

do you use the shatter effects or do you model each fragmented pieces ?

At the moment little poligonals pieces. but I thinking about the xplosions maybe I can to change it for particles.....
I not sure...

[oneir0s]

...Are there going to be some other objects in the scene? I see that collision as a part of background and there are other ships around observing that emergency situation and may be some characters emotions on foreground.



In the initial sketch around the scene the situation is of exodus. A death escape of a exploding planet. A lot of sheeps scaping quickly...

A limit situation...

[rickycox]

Looks good but I think the scale is out of whack. The planet looks too small compared to the ship. It looks like about the size of an asteriod and without any other objects in the scene, there's nothing else to guage as a reference.

[DigitalOmega]

hehe that'ss a cool idea man! i like it, as you might know the scale can be a little tricky on this one, but, if you add enough details and everything it maight look even better than now!

good luck!

[plaguelord]

wow! the lightingn and the atmosphere gives it an impressive look, very good work my friend!
I agree about the scale, maybe some items for reference or adjusting the planet.

[oneir0s]

I agree too the scale is the enemy. but I believe that the planetary proportion against the ship is not the problem... Others objects maybe... the ships that abandon the planet I don´t know

[Genesisa]

man very cool that image, me gusta mucho la forma qeu se ve del otro lado del planeta
puedes acentuar mas ese efecto donde se ve como si irradiara luz desde adentro, como unas pequeñas grietas por donde intenta salir la explocion qeu se esta generando dentro del planeta.

gracias por tu comentarion en mi foro.
have funn everybody. :eek:

[vrhead]

whoh.. they said imagine something on a book cover.. i think you have it there..!! wow

[Deadlyforce]

Great work so far but I have crits about the scale of the scene :

The ship and the planet are nearly the same size which is possible of course. But I think this is the main problem. One should be really bigger than the other, that would give you a strongest composition.

These are my thoughts at first glance...

I will try to compose with the scene, to see if I can to solve the problem of the scale.

[Jaba153]

muy bonito!bravo! great modeling' nice colors on our sketch,really good start very impressive sketch:thumbsup:

[uwil]

el concepto es tan anormal! heheh ...i'll definitely follow this one........promise! the concept is overflowing! :bounce: the modeling too!

I need to add lights.

[Kaksht]

Hi there oneir0s. Very nice ship indeed, very cool idea about the solar ship, thumbs up! The sail looks very awesome :) No crits about the ship nor the planet and the whole collision :thumbsup:

Keep it up, hope to see ya in the final!

Hey! The solar ship looks great! Very original design and great textures too!
Also the fighter is very clean model so far :thumbsup:

Keep it up!

the fighter convert in battleship.
...

Better?

Thx

[Andrey_SE]

Yep, quite better now. The only doubts about landing... I mean. how stable is it on the ground?
Keep going! Nice ship models! :thumbsup:

[overcontrast]

hey i like those ship designs... really electrifying... keep it up buddy... best of luck again

[terraarc]

Model #2 looks great too, and clean (did I actually meant "clean" or "clear" in my previous post.. :shrug: ).
I wonder what will be the ships sizes in the final image comparing to their details, started thinking that on my GSO's ships..

Keep it up mate! :applause:

I can´t wait I´m put the ships into the scene.
It´s only a photoshop quickly.

[AirbORn]

you have some great ship designs :) I like them a lot. Looking forward to more progress. Interested to see what the final composition will be.

[overcontrast]

dude... thats awesome..!! man ur wroking really fast... i totally love those new image.. keep it up man!!!

[SnakeFarlow]

Wow,:eek: yor work is awsome, I really like the way you manage the color, your modeling is excelent too, I know that you still don´t finish, but try to get better the crashing. The rest it's really good. Maybe you could give me some advices, I will be very thankfull.

Good luck-

Snake Farlow ther rogue.

[straightforward]

I can't believe how much imagination you guys have, to design machinery like this. Could you give me some clue where you get the inspiration to make those kinds of things? It's amazing. I am having a lot of trouble designing my spaceship, since I've never done it before.

Good luck!

[Deadlyforce]

These are just tests so I won't annoy you with useless comments.
Just one thing to take care in the next updates :

in your picture, every ship and the planet look equal in size. It's better to avoid that I think.

Keep going !

[oneir0s]

Thank you for all the comments.
As tells deadly force the composition I don't like it me too , you are right in the comparison of sizes. And the alignment maybe neither is the ideal.
And the impact is also hide a little.
They even lack 3 - 4 ships more and shading everything.
A lot of work, and I haven´t time.

[oneir0s]

this look better.

[lehmi]

i liked the composition before this one a bit better...

now the ship in the foreground somehow seems to melt with the big ring in the background. You may wan to move it a bit down and to the left again.

I'd probably get rid of the green and go for some color or tone that's already somewhere in the image, so you get a more solid color compo.

Just some thoughts. It looks really promising!

[YasushAzush]

Very Very Heavy Wings
nice model:scream:

[SnakeFarlow]

Your image is getting better, I like the colition, your should add an explotion there.
Take a look of my towers, I am trying to use some color veriety there. Tell me your coment.

Snake Farlow. The rogue.

[uwil]

greaaat! update Rafa. i like the last image, it's more detailed than the other one. keep 'em crashing..:twisted: ........:applause:

[Borro]

Great work man :) But I prefer the previous image cuz theres more space in it lol. The second is too crouded(so to say)... there aint air in the new one and you kinda choke lol... anyway keep it up :)

[neble]

The image is looking great, but I'm not sure if the first left green ship is working. I'm not able to tell if it's attached to the crashing piece, or not. It also is fighting for the main focal point of the piece, and I would almost say the piece would be stronger if it played more of a minor role. Just an opinion, other wise keep it coming.

[theuni]

Hi,

oh boy the driver of the ship must have a good insurance :) Nice Image but I also have to
say that I liked the image with more space in it better.

[Genesisa]

man sorry for all of you, cudnt talk becuse i was finishing my semester and i was so busy.
but now i have more free time.

well the thing is, i think that your image is very cool but i think you can do it a lot better i dont know how is gonna look becuse you still have time and maybe is not finish, but i think is going great, there is a suggestion, why you dont put those glows nebulosas i dont know how to say that in english jeje, and for the planet some blur effect on the impact.and maybe you can use some kind of chinks in the planet whit a little shiny effect on them.

well man thats all i have to say
you going great in your imagen, very cool. but remember to have fun
dont work under pressure, BYE GUYS :bounce:

addings the strokes into the scene, and I add littles xplosions too...

Maybe a lot of them....

[arturro]

Hi! Very nice progress, I think that the previous coposition was better, but this angle of showing the crush is better. So I would mix those two sompositions. And I advice to add more small ships in he background, to emphasize the feeling of grand scale evacuaiton and rapid escape.

[terraarc]

Pretty nice update! :thumbsup:

The crush looks promising and surely grande! Waiting for all those related FX of a collicion and explosion!! :bounce:

[uwil]

hi Rafa, nice effort on the comp.... it's becoming intense. arturro have some points too... agree with that. anyway.... keep 'em blowing....:thumbsup:
c'ya

[neble]

I think I like the planet in the earlier image better because it's rather hard to see the planet in the last. It ends up fadeing into the blackness a bit too much. What would happen if you pulled the sun around towards the camera a bit more to light more of the planet, or even lighten the planet texture a bit?

[Climax]

• Shame on me! this is the first time I pay u a visit :blush: You are doing great! waiting 4 that FI :thumbsup:

[warthog]

Pretty cool Collision-Big Space Station, I think you could put more debri into the collision. And make the planet fall more apart to make it seem like a real collision, i would have put in less stars into the space. Too many of tham. Also would help with puttong shock waves around the collision. But anyway i really like the Ship designs and The ship blasting off from the planet. It-ed be pretty cool if a station would be built that big one day. I give it 5 of 5. An' two thumbs up...:thumbsup::thumbsup:
