Retro Style ship

[strunzo]

Hiya, I had another go at applying some different materials to give the ship a more older used look, let me know what you think, cheers

I like it, it is less plasticky and toy-like this way.

[edwardo]

yea, these are WAY nicer!! Nice work

[Angelo]

very nice!

Thanks guys, it was worth the extra effort, I am going to make up a sky pad or a hanger next to see how she looks under different lighting, cheers

[richardfunnell]

Your materials & textures look great! I would suggest trying some different lighting environments, this scene could use a little punch of some more dynamic lighting

Really good looking images though, looking forward to more!

[strunzo]

Thanks Richard - I would love some hints or settings if you have any

[strunzo]

Just sharing a work in progress - landing pad, trying the lighting again and new landing pad

[richardfunnell]

Whoah, those are looking super! Your move to an environment with a sky instead of the studios really helps the metal pop; seeing the correct reflections of the environment on your model was the perfect move

[Speedster]

Really neat, and it's fun watching your progression with this.

Suggestion- since it's high in the atmosphere, I would think the shadows would be quite harsh and sharp? This may require a comp, with this wonderful HDR, and another that throws hard shadows.

Cheers for the feedback, I never actually thought about the shadows, particularly in space, good call out and something to learn, I will play around and see what comes up
