I just gave it a (low quality render) try.

I put in a lo res flying saucer and two additional orange light sources with multiplier increased up to "1e+007" (Strength: slider up to "1e+006" and type in a 7 instead of the 6).
Maybe this is what you tried to achieve?

hey thats wicked hannes ...where did you get the ufo from is it an obj ?...and great attempt im so pleased to see someones had a go ..and well supprised at that its really good like the others say with some tweaking ere n there and on a full quality render im sure it would look tops

See ive always wanted to try something differnt than the normal tg renders of landscape ..ya no you start to run out of ideas after a while so i think its good to aim for some movie themed pictures ya no ..loads out there really ive seen some amasing sky scenes in the new kong film ..just need an obj ape lol

definatly need to have a go at this myself good work m8

any obj tripods flying around i wonder ?..war of the worlds has some good deep cloud scenes huh

but i know i know ..get this one done first lol

Thanks!
The UFO is a very simple disk with a nice texture. I created it in 3ds Max and exported it as .obj.
I think I'll render it in better quality overnight.

this site has some great 3d objects you can download. its just a matter of coverting them into the right format and getting them to work in tg2

no offence but the problem with movie themed renders is that the idea isnt yours hence its not considered unique....and you never run out of ideas....I dont have much experience in 3d world as I am still in skool but thats how I like to think.....

Hey no offence taken each to there own ideas isnt it but Good way of thinking but
really any pictures made "based" on any movie isnt going to look exact is it so there pretty unique really in my eyes ..like if this thread was just can someone make a cloud render with a space ship in ,,ppl would be sayin wooaahh that looks cool like something from blah blah...so i dont see the harm in it

ah right thanks tiger i'll have a look around see whats what ...im still tryin to get the cloud look lol

Anyway it's great fun to do scenes like that and you can learn from the challenge.
Here is my new render:

I added some details to the ship, increased the samples in the quality settings of the clouds (although it's still a bit grainy) and added some more lights. Hope you like it.

In overall I prefer realistic landscape renders, but this is a really great sci-fi image

Very cool glowing clouds and I love the details on the saucer!
Now it just needs to be animated
