The Carrier TCS Concordia, crippled by enemy action and force landed on Vespus of the Mistral Coast.

Original Pic

wow, man
really great!
lighting and compositing are great, the only crits I ahve are that the shadow on the water looks a bit off, and it seems the carrie is too close to shore to be sunk that deep

I really like this image, but like backstept said, the shadow is cast in the wrong direction from the light source. Also the shadow doesn't ripple or behave like light and shadow does on other waves.

I was all 'hmm... that reminds me of the WC3 intro' and then I scrolled down.

Great pic, and not only because it's Wing Commander.

hum..guys...i THINK, the water scene is an actuall image....but not entirely shure

Great picture, love the texture of it all, good blending.

**IRML** · 08-12-2007, 02:08 PM

the shadows you're all talking about are actually reflections

**Klavs81** · 08-12-2007, 02:50 PM

IRML is correct, though if you can't tell, I didn't do my job right.

The pic used to be a real one, but most of it is painted over.

Impressive. Gotta love the compositing.
I wonder when Hobbes will show up in this thread and whether we should offer him some cat food?

Brilliant work, especially the lighting

	When you love a pet, loosing it is like loosing a part of your soul. I lost part of mine on Feb 12 2008. Never will it be the same again.
