I am still not too shure about the way I’m going to go but I really like the idea of “Party dome”, other ideas of mine might be later incorporated into that image (like the lightspeed highway leading to the party dome, I like that idea too).
In the image above I’m trying out the composition (fitting in 3 stars (yes those 3 spheres are indeed stars :)) isn’t easy).
Anyway some concepts of the models will be made during this weekend. See you all then!
Not bad, but I prefer the star sucking concept (nr 1.) Its more creative and has a bigger sense of scale.
Those glass domes do look more cute to me, not really big and awe inspiring. And it’s not the newest of ideas … (except for the party aspect, which is really cool, the biggest disco in the universe … 45 dance floors, party all night) Maybe the party needs so much energy, the have to plug in to a star, for all those laser light shows. :eek:
well, like I said earlyer, I will incorporate all of my previous ideas into this one.
here’s a little secret what I do:
“a plot is a small boat in the great see of worlds you create”
can’t remember who said that [and it was in latvian- so the translation doesn’t sound that good], but I think that’s one of the best sayings I have ever heard
p.s. and the shapes of the dome will change too, but I’ll keep that to my self for now
while I’m still working on the final concept of the dome, I decided to post some of the concepts of the ships flying around it!
Very nice ships. In fact they look much better then dome IMHO- they do have much more character.
well I’m still working on the dome concept! but I am starting to doubt on the giant disco idea!
does anyone like this?, cuz if not I will try to come up with something more interesting!
Have I heard partydome?? Cool, let me in…:bounce:
Thanx for your post in my thread, Gunaars, but I think your ideas are much better - they’re really unique,man! Do the partydome-idea and stay original - it’s really cool imho!
Best luck and cya:beer:
I’m still not too shure. well maybe the dome idea will be there, but will it be just a party dome, don’t know…
I’m starting to think about space-zoo, each civilisation will have its entry, with a different head, not like now- just those damn monkeys!
Or maybe space amusement park…
eh, nevermind, I am just too tired to post and think anymore!
There’s plenty of time Gunaars, however, to have a general concept beforehand as soon as possible is advisable so you will have good time to flesh out your chosen idea. I would choose the star sucker.
thanks for the words of comfort guys!
And I think I finally got it… I can’t really explain what it is, but I got it, I can feel it!
and here are the domed imitations.
So, this is some kind of zoo of the future, where there are imitations of all the benefits that each civlisation can bring!
Hello Riga, here is Tallinn!
The Sucker Dude - 10 points!
:bounce:
I really like the concept. While everyone else are messing with apocalyptic disasters, there is someone who is planning an interstellar party/or zoo!
If U have original concept-then U are a half winner already 
I remember another sucker-dude from spielbergs AI as well
Actually every entrance face might look like the representative of each civilization.
One huma face, one monkey face one alien face and so on!
But it means a really freaky modelling and texturing
Or maybe a huge spaceship which looks like a huge lenin/marx/engels statue??
Space dome, parties? Cool!!!
This is really funny… and the “entrance” to your dome is great. Man, I’ll bookmark this one.
Stefano
terre, taavi! yup, you got my idea correctly, there will be a different head for each civilisation, and inspiration for those entrances did came form Spielbergs A.I.!
Doublecrash: Thanks, I’ll try my best!
did some modeling during the weekend, and here are the results.
This is the dome that will be put in the background, due to its low details. There will be more domes, each for every civilsation. And the focus will be put on the party civilisation… that I haven’t jet thought of.
Really like your modeling. Very interesting design. One point, all the concept work seems to base the civilization on humans. Maybe introduce alternate physiologies in the architecture. Just a thought.
But looking good.
Pagaidaam izskataas ljoti daudzsoloshi, man patiik. Cerams, ka pietiks pacietiibas pabeigt :]
Good luck!
