Same here; your work looks as good (if not maybe better than) as the ships coming out of the current Star Wars films. :thumbsup:

greentek: Currently, Iā€™m testing out lighting for space scenes and the best solution Iā€™ve found (at least for now) is to use a distant light set at a low setting to mimic the Sun and an area light set at 50-60% to mimic 1 planet (for more planets, use the same number of area lights each set at a lower %).

EDIT: Shouldā€™ve pointed out that my lighting solution has only been tested for my scene, which features luminous beings set against 2 planets (one big planet and 1 small planet) and a distant sun; I have no idea how the lighting looks using metallic objects. If youā€™re going to use a similar lighting setup, test it to see if itā€™s what you want.

great amazing work on the ship ! continue !

#243

nice ships and designs budy ā€¦keep up the good work tech

#244

@greentek ill check out that stuff

ill do the spots ā€œcoming from the enemy sideā€ searching for the defensive force that lies in the shadows
im relativly new to pflow i actualy have never used it before so there has been a lot learned already in this challenge

@pBarrelas ill start on the freighter should have almost the same feeling to it afterwards
ofcourse it will an entire different construction

@pigwater i think its due to its basic shaping and Easy design ā€¦ thats the way those Classic starwars ships where made too
like the starwars cruiser thing with the extremely simple triangular design

or the deathstar ā€¦ now this might seem complex but i could build you one just like it in a matter of minutes ā€¦

@artic
im using a direct spot from a sun location with an orange / yellow difuse collour
and an omni from the planet ā€œwich will have a breathable surfaceā€ and water ā€¦
so the omni will cast Blue light from the atmosphere

@gpepper
nice of you to drop in again :slight_smile:

@techart :slight_smile: thanks aprecieate all of it :slight_smile:

Hi Jeroen. I like the way your freighter is coming together. Good work :cool: . Have you used displacement maps for the panelling? Would be nice to see a wire frame. Good luck.
