Description
I was quite satisfied with the way that this model came out. The ship was made in Bryce5, and the guys inside the control room that you can barely see were from Poser5. I found the nebular background image by looking up "nebula" on www.lycos.com, along with a very large number of other excellent hi-res space backgrounds. Any constructive criticism is very welcome.

Good sense of drama, liked the way you placed the ship over the star. Think the cockpit area looks to open, can't see any glass or windows keeping the atmosphere in.
I love this...love this...love this.
VERY nice construction you have done here! I really like the edginess of your model and the intricate details. I do agree with Mark, that the cockpit needs glass. Great scene!
Interesting that you gave this space ship a high tech body and a carved stone arrow head. The lack of glare on the glass does give it a cut-away feel which I can understand that you didn't want to cover up all the work on the interior. Maybe a close up shot next.
The lack of glass was originally intended to give a force-field type look, as well as show off the detail inside the cockpit, but I think it just ended up looking empty. If I use the ship in any of my future pictures, I'll consider adding a mist or glass texture or something to make it a little bit more contained. Thanks!
Very nice pyro effects. Pretty interesting spaceship and who knows, maybe out there spaceships don't require glasses. Great work.
I'm not into Sci-fi...but,I don't know if you added the lens-flare in an imaging prog,however it was done it's one of the few I've seen that are properly placed,actually behind an object,and causing a glow..and D6..interesting observation...you can learn a lot from people's comments!
Very cool! Would make a great cover for a SCI-FI book.
