Title: Tatooine - Just for fun
Post by: nvseal on March 26, 2008, 10:30:05 AM
I usually try to avoid using obj in my scenes unless I can really make them work but I will make one exception just for fun. These models don't have any materials so I placed them behind the suns to try to minimize the effect. BTW, I had to cut off the bottom of the render because of a very strange bug with the shadows of the AT-AT (the shadows had a black border around the profile  ???) and that changed the composition -- so it doesn't look as good as it should have. So here it is, an AT-AT, AT-ST, and a Lamda Shuttle on Tatooine.  ;D

It has a feel for being a lonely walk across the planet.  I'm going to ruin my own dreamy perception by saying the ground needs a little more (or perhaps just different or lighter or different colors) texture.  Cool job on the setup and the angle of view.  Like the sunset as well.  Need another sun, right...or is that a dual moon system?

There are two suns in the image. The one on the horizon and the one toward the middle of the scene (it is just harder to see due to it's higher angle and the cirris clouds). I agree that the ground needs more color to it. I may re-render.

Make that middle sun more distinct, if you can.  I didn't see it.  Unless it's just me... ;D

It looks like a blob to me.

I saw this at Renderosity and commented there. The POV is cool. Very dynamic, like we are in a moving vehicle. Very good.
