Random Renderings

JJ even used lenses that made better (and by better I mean bigger) flares on XI.

Test shot for Red Squad and its planned sequel.

I like this,but I'm not a fan of the atmosphere

@Destral: By hand?!! Wow.

That's pretty fast. And awesome. Kudos.

Thanks! Now for something for the Homeworld 2 fans out there.

"First Contact With The Unbound."

HW2 fan, but haven't payed the game much. that's a harbor or shipyard thing isn't it?

Yea, thats the Bentusi Harbor Ship known as Bentus. (And its not called that because it's bent, DW )

Whoops, forgot to post this here. Next step is trying to improve my lighting skills a bit as well as my manual shaky camera work.

Well all i got was A Slide show of about 6 slides, mainly cause my comp sucks, but i;'m sure it's good.

Are you gonna try doing those recommendations I gave you last night Krunchy?

Yes I will, as well as a few tips Im getting from the folks at Bridge Commander Central.

It reminds me a LOT of the battle scenes on BSG...

Another beauty shot, "Enterprise In Orbit."

you sure like Lens flares don't you?

also great render,i have a new Wallpaper now.

Quick test render, mostly showcasing my fighter animation skills. I am currently also trying to find an interior of the Enterprise E bridge, so I may learn more about interior shots.

That is some fast firing.

Double tap? rapid fire mod?

More like triple tap, way to fast for a double.

That would be the specially designed Razor Pulse Cannon. In the original design of the Intimidator Class, that would be a 6-tube Quantum Torpedo launcher, but the Enterprise-E truly is a special gem

do it have Green/Blue phasers aswell? I'm very Anti-normal phasers

Ive noticed Lets just say you'll be pleasantly surprised in upcoming shots if I can help it.

I prefer more conventional weapons, such as rail guns missiles bullets etc... but it is star trek and laser's are imense also can i ask what 3d software do you use and what is it's price?

So do I, it gives Sci-fi more believability

Thats what i like about stargate, the fact that most of it is possible but now the way technology is advancing more and more star trek technologies are becoming more realistic, such as PADD's when tthey were in star trek it was really advanced now what do we have an Ipad which is basically the same thing, plus defense contractors are working on laser weapons.

In terms of believable tech, Halo wins

3ds Max, $3500.

you get a student discount or somethink?

I cannot afford that! wow software is really expensive

Another test shot. I know my pulse phasers need work, as do my shield effects, but hey, its better than no effect at all.

The sounds are awesome, i agree your pluses need a bit work, Also i don't think Bubble Shields are used in the 24th century.

The shields normally just light up and flciker where they have been hit and this dissapates around the ship, so the opposite side should be barly if at all visible

I meant to stay post Nemesis, when your's is set.

Well, Nemesis isn't a good guide. It's one movie that shows the Enterprise's shields be close to the hull and take the shape of the ship, so I dunno if it's a good thing to base an entire tech thing on

Neither is any other Movie, or Episode, but sadly it's cannon.

Could be some sort of experimental shielding the enterprise e was the most advanced ship at the time.

Well, the majority of the episodes used bubble shields, so based on the fact that the majority of the time they were used, it can be safe to say bubble shields exist. BUt it's up to the SFX artist, in this case, Krunchy. And I'm not sure what Midnight's shields should look like, they gotta be cool though

she had regentive shielding or somethink. AKA it would recharge, with out needing to be deactivated.

That's a good concept, I like that

I was replying to Lee's post. But, since the Midnight uses, a lot of cool stuff, it's usable.

Yeah, I knew you were talking about the Enterprise, I was saying how I liked that concept that they used, sorry for the confuzzlement

Well it's Defiantly cannon the Promethues Had them.

Imma do a few test shots of this beaut, the USS Valiant, before *officially* finishing up act 2 of Episode 3 and beginning my casting call for Red Squad.

The Valiant needs more engine glow.

More Red Squad stuffs!

"Balcorra 6 - Low Orbit"

Is that a Norxian or a Scimitar Type Warbrid?

Neither. Its a Klingon Vessel, the Heart of Kahless.

Oh, Looked like a Scimitar Type Warbird, till you said it was Klingon and i saw the Ball bridge thing.

Epic fighting will ensue.... heh, I love being in the loop

So just how much longer will we need to wait till we see the 3rd Episode
