Hey there - hello. Nice pic and your first post too! Unfortunately I cannot get the whole effect unless I download and convert to a more viewable size for me (1024x768).

Damn, that is nice.

Needs to have no credits on it (we place a logo on it and the text credit is on the page) and sized to the right size for the site though http://www.3dgladiators.net/workforu...lies/smile.gif

I'll remove the credits straight away, then.

Nice composition! Is it just me, or does that left nacelle look stretched vertically?

Very nice ...

Just one thing - is it only my monitor or is the planet and the nebula difusing into each other (on the top of the planet)?

Right then, all fixed. I've re-rendered the pic at 1024x768 without credits.

Salek - I've used a Gradient map on a sphere to create a realistic falloff on the Atmosphere, but where the shadow begins, the transparency effect becomes more pronounced, hence the diffusing effect.

OK - now I have to say it - beautifull.http://www.3dgladiators.net/workforu...es/biggrin.gif

Nice. I love it! Where the spheres at the rear of the nacelles ever lit?

Hot Damn! - Looks great.

I don't know about those asteroids. They look a bit dull, being all black and of nearly uniform size. Are they supposed to be part of that planet's ring? They sort of remind me of a bunch of raisins.

Otherwise, very nice picture!

Masao, It's supposed to be the remains of a Moon in orbit around the Gas Giant, originally destroyed by the Blue Dwarf turning into a Supernova.
