A model I'm working on

[tbd]

Well, Its rendered in Bryce. I like making stuff like this. Its a bit simple maybe, but I'm kinda pleased with how it turns out. Not sure if i'll texture it. I may leave that up to you.

That's very nice tbd.
How many times did you already pass on that model (just curious) ?

[tbd]

How many times did you already pass on that model

luuckyy: Not sure I understand what you say here?

[luuckyy]

Sorry :)

I meant how many hours/days did that take you to modelize that ?

[tbd]

I see. Well, its difficult to say cos I have worked and reworked it many times and I dont ceep track of time. Its just a hobby to model stuff. If I had to put a time on it I would say around 3-4 workingdays. Maybe less. I started with this.

You are very creative and imaginative.
It's a very good point for you.

Nice work.
Any chance of seeing a wireframe, please?

[tbd]

Spinner: Is this what you want?

where can I go to get bryce? I have seen some of the stuff you can do with it for modeling, and they are nice looking.

[tbd]

You can get Bryce here http://www.daz3d.com/

[nightoftheroundtable]

okay I'm looking into it

[nightoftheroundtable]

hmmm is there a good rendering program, thats about the same as bryce but free to download?

[USSWINGER]

hmm, very interest. what is ship use for like shuttle or spacecraft?

starship winger

[Spinner]

tbd,
Thanks mate.
Yep, thats what I meant. It gives a bit of a peek into how you've tackled a model. Next time max just one view, though. :wink:

[DRAKELOT]

Cool looking spaceship and borg thingo !!!

[Spinner]

Maybe play around with your cockpit rear bulkhead?
See if you can get the outer fuselage facets less noticeable there? I think its the inner shadow that makes them stand out like that.
It all looks go good that the eye is drawn to little issues like that.

[nightoftheroundtable]

hmm I am curious. Did you by chance make the details in ac3d or did you do the details in the bryce rendering program

[tbd]

Bryce is not that kinda modeler. Sure, if you know what you do you can make quite advanced models, but its not posible to export it as anything useful. So in that sence its a waste of time.

[nightoftheroundtable]

do you think as seen in my avatar that my model has potential with detailing

[Spinner]

He used Bryce for the landscape.

[nightoftheroundtable]

ooh okay lol. I see now I didn't know how far into detail you can get with ac3d.

then never mind about my previous post
