Description
Sometimes it feels like a curse: I make a ship model, and the more I look at it, the more things I want to change.
This is simply re-building an earlier concept, and yet I'm already seeing things I want to change (again) so I guess I'm going to have to learn to accept that I'll never be fully satisfied with these things.
As always, ship model and most of the textures are my own. Model created in Bryce entirely from primitives. The moons in the background are also my own textures, rendered in Bryce. Background was assembled in Adobe Photoshop, as well as all compositing, etc.
Thanks for taking a look, and comments/critiques definitely welcome.
I hope you all have had good and relaxing holidays!

That's awesome and the textures are really cool !!!!!
Even when Im rendering something I see things I could change or add. I think that's normal for modelers :-)
Very cool work I like the design concept
I am never happy with mine,always tweaking,especially as my skills develop...another fine creation my friend, and the moon texture is very well done! All the best in 2015!
Good design !
Excellent! Corrie
Very very beautiful image !!!!!
Nice sleek design!
If I didn't know you worked in Bryce, I'd swear this was done in Vue or C4D.... You never cease to amaze me with your skill in creating these ships, and then placing them in such epic space environments. Stunning as always, Mike!
Superb scifi picture and POV
Glad to see you keep working with this well-designed space vessel. Like you, I like to rework my designs over and over in an attempt to keep refining them.
It's really fabulous... Outstandingly done !!!
One of the things I like about your body of work is how well you depict the monotony and drabness of life in space. Think yours is closer to the reality of what it will be than say Star Trek or Battlestar Galactica, et al.
