Lemog - Heh heh!! The problem is that women have more sense than us , guys, the computer may cost too much!! I’m a litle better than you, cause i have an Athlon 2600+ with a Quadro FX 1000 card…heh heh…but i want more!! And if we (cg artists) could, we would have a very cheap car with a 10.000 pc at home…heh heh heh!!

Nice going mate, I really like your ship’s design! Very original and abstract, while maintaining a perfect familiarity with the environment… great job

I’m just a little curious about the terrain, are you going to detail it further or assume a more stylized landscape?
Um abraço 
Rui - Hello for you too! Thanks a lot for dropping some lines and for liking my work!!
Yes, i’ll detail the terrain more, i’ll use displacement maps to achieve a more realistic effect.
Obrigado e um abraço!!

rodrigobraga - Thank you for liking my ship design, i’m a litle short of time right now, but more updates will follow, soon!!
HI, Your model every time are getting better, The new ship it cool too, but I think that it could have some windows, or engines there, something that hierarchirize the shape of your ship.
And a final advice, your citie will alway be great for me, becous I am an architect an I love this kind of architecture, but may be it will be better if you give more perspective on your image, becouse all the citie is seeing by the front, maybe you colud add some planes maybe trees or something like that very close to the camera, this will aloud you to focalize your image.
SnakeFarlow, -tolga- and ||) |V| |^| - Thanks a lot guys, for your words and aupport!!
I’m very sad for posting this:
Regarding the nature of my job, plus that right now i’m finishing my degree in architecture, i have i anounce that i’m giving up from this challenge!!
As i said before, i’m really sad for doing this but i had to choose between the chellange and to present to my university my first part of three, of my final project, which will be by Jan 15!!!
I just want to thanks everybody that supported me for this long and to apologise to those that were waiting to see my final image. This challenge were very cool, i love the way this community supports each other.
