Title: Last Stand
Name: Marcus Erbar
Country: USA
Software: Maya, Photoshop

In the not-so-distant future, we face an unsurmountable foe. Popular idea, but always good fun! :)
Most of the time was spent on designing and modeling the alien invasion ship. Everything except for the background stars was modelled and rendered in Maya with a bit of compositing in Photoshop.

The spaceship itself looks nice but Earth looks a bit weird, maybe it's because of the white line around it ? I also think the overall composition would be a lot better without that destroyed spaceship at the bottom. It's too destracting and totaly destroys the sense of movement in the composition.

Thanks for the feedback! The whole scene definitely relies on the visual impact of the big vessel and I do see your point about the earth ship creating issues with the dynamic of the composition.

Here are some more detailed renders of the alien ship -
