Nice looking spaceship indeed! I'd put some red glow on the metal parts near the exhaust flame, and some bigger stars in the background, otherwise this is a fine image. Reply »

According to the Contest Goals you're supposed to make the textures yourself.

"Create your own models and your own textures.", it says.

Great model, but I'll hold my vote until that's cleared up. Reply »

Nice work with the space ship. The edge between the black and red background is very sharp, unless that's what you intended. Good luck Reply »

Perspective on engine nacelles is wrong, everything else looks good... Reply »

Reply:

nacelles = is a cover housing (separate from the fuselage) that holds engines... Sorry.. I just have to be YIN when I see a Yang Reply »

Reply:

Oh well, without yin there is no yang and likewise... yin and yang need each other...

Edit: Btw the way cool render... 3D modeling is real tough when you try make stuff other than primitive shape... I am trying to learn lightwave and it is kicking my rear end lmao...



More edit: I am not an expert or whatever... But maybe there might be some optical illusion that happens due to the positions of certain space in a 2d or 3d space... e. g. there is an well know basic optical illusion where 2 parallel line of the exact line... One line has outward arrow at both it's edges and the other has inward arrow.... so when view they look like they are of different length... Anyways I may be wrong... But the image rock as hell Reply »

Great work author! I must admit though..CM is correct in that the center mounted engine is not aligned correctly. It has about a 14-18 degree uptilt to the main body. I noticed this in your step 6. From this angle of the body we should not be able to see the bottom of the center motor but we can. Just a passing thought. Again, good stuff over all!! Good luck! Reply »

Having studied the image, i've decided to change the camera angle to avoid the look that the engines are out of perspective. I hope this is better. I've also added 4 more steps to prove that the engines are not misaligned or out of perspective. Please view last four steps for this...The engines are perfectly aligned. The camera used was a 50mm.

Great, great, great. I envie you for the use of UVW maps, I still dont manage this modifier, its an impulse for me to work more here. And to avoid discussions about perspective I keep my old opinion. Use camera with lens higher than 80 mm, Congratulations, a wonderful begining for 3D contests. Reply »

Thanks for tip billyboy, i will remember that for next time... Reply »

Looks much better! Reply »

wow this is amazing Reply »

great Reply »

Reply:

Haha. Misalignment! If I could come close to making something like this, I'd be glad if all was the problem was one of the elements was misaligned. Anyway, I'm glad you were able to fix it. It looks really great! Reply »

Reply:

This looks really cool but the background is kind of fuzzy, which makes it looks like it's just a poster behind the ship. Reply »

This is a cool looking craft , I like the attention to detail on the hull, good job author Reply »

GREAT!! Reply »

Yeppers...MUCH better looking (even if they aren't perfect according to the 3D program!). Well done again! Reply »

I'm sorry if i missunderstand your descpription and SBS, but the contest goal says the textures is supposed to be made by yourself! You used a source for the texture, right? I do like it, but i'll save my vote untill you got that cleared up. Reply »

"Using any 3D creation software, render a scene to do with Space travel. Use your imagination, be original. Detailed step by step guides are mandatory. In this contest, your scenes and models cannot be pre-built... Create your own models and your own textures. Everything has to be made by yourself, shown clearly in a step by step guide! Good luck"

@dka120 Well I too had that doubt but I didn't give it much thought... Coz as seen in the guideline, says "scenes and models cannot be pre-built"... And it also says "Create your own models and your own textures"...

However it doesn't say anything about "you cannot use outside texture"... Well even pro use outside texture and some even create texture from pre-existing textures... Ahh well will be better if mod clarify on this... Coz guides can be interpreted in different ways by different people...

Also this is the first time 3D specialized contest is being held... So can let go the first time... Just my humble opinion... Reply »

Cool. Reply »

Okay, thanks for the kick up the butt lol, I've removed the textures, to comply with contest guidelines. I completely forgot about the make your own textures rule !!!! I think it looks better without to be honest. The grey you see is the default autocad palette 50/50 grey shade. Reply »

Good thinking. I dont get well why the paper from the image has a rough edge on top, for the rest nice execution. Good luck! Reply »

Reply:

Thanks for comments. Wazowski, I had two reason in mind 1. to look like ruptured sheet from a magazine. 2 just because is difficile to make rough edges with max. Dont look very well, I know, but I worked too hard on it to remove it. Reply »
