A very rough sketch of what I want to do for my scene. It's going to be a shot from within Alexandria looking off into the distance where you can see the zero bridge and the Russian paratroopers dropping down during the invasion. I just rewatched Band of Brothers recently and that scene where they drop on D-Day still gets me... just the sheer insanity of it and how big it all must've seem. All those soldiers must've been at that odd balance point where you have little to no hope of surviving but you do your job and keep that tiny part of you that still believes burning strong. Same with the survivors on the Stone I guess. Hahah cheesy I know but hopefully it'll look cool anyway! Gotta get going >_< Work finally let up a little (project's ending) so modeling starts tomorrow!

Rough layout. Obviously a lot of things are going to change as I go but now there's at least a foundation to go off of =)

hey mai


thats a nice looking concept so far.. one crit is that the platform in the top left of the image
is blocking a lot of the composition out and seems to be distracting.

keep going

thanks for the comment bearfoot =) i was intending to make that walkway semi-transparent but i agree its covering too much of the composition... i'll def move that around in the final piece... i'd like to show more of the bridge and the paratroopers on that side of the comp

here's a basic layout for one of the megas in Alexandria... just trying to get a feel for the structure as a whole. Now time to model the details =)
