Default Feedback on new space look

Well, I tried some more at making some HR images for BG's to use.


Not all that suited in PS. But I did get the Planet looking nice.


Just wondering what some of your thoughts are on the scene.
Not whether or not you like NuBSg- cuz I dont really dig it a lot myself

Trying some new ships. A differnt look. waddya think?

Should I keep making more of this?


thanks


Note: I should look into some writing sections and maybe use some of that as a guide to CGI episodes. hmmm.

So much to learn , so little time, and so many ideas with so little knowledge and so much to discover with so many things to try.

We writers have an expression: "The first million words don't count."

What it means is that writing - like CGI - is a craft to be learned, and every word you write - or image/animation you create - is honing your craft.

Keep it up.

So you are saying I got to do a miilion videos LOL HARD

J-k

yeah, I used to think not of others but just did it, knowing I am just a newb

But lately I have been getting tips-suggestions-helpful things, so now I seem to be wanting others opines.

you are right- I should just trudge through it without seeking input. as I was.


This one, I am not sure if I like it or not. yet.

Thanks.


maybe some time I will look into writing sections and find some inspiration.

Lookin good. Keep at it.
Looks better than a lot of the stuff I can do right now. (That's why I'm going for the cartoonish look...to suit the needs of my own projects.)

Dont be Like Roger Rabbit and go toon over jessica


Keep at it. I got time so I am progressing quickly for a DIY'er.

Stuff now seeems harder to make and create that I am better at it.
Take more effort-patience.


Its worth it though ,I watch my videos all the time. It will come around.


Dont settle for a toon when you can try for the real thing........ wait,
The Real Thing,,,,,,,,Coca Cola.

Nah nuttin wrong with it being toon or sub-professsional-or realistic.

I resigned I will probably never get a film-cinematic look or realistic.

What I got is bout the best I can offer.

Regards,



Textures and materials. look up spaceship hull - add some better textures/materials if you can. I redid the vipers ( both of em) this way.

What you have definitely looks great....loving the lighting effects too. (Really liking the battlestar Armitage!)

When you see the "toon" approach of my video, you'll see why I opted for it. And in truth, I rather like how it makes my ships look....if you saw the Family Guy parodies, and saw the quality of the ships in those....that's about how my ships are turning out.
