| OK, have the computer set up again (Had to do a clean install of Windows on it too... Ugh!) but finally managed to get some more modeling done - Worked on Castle Caladan (seen briefly in the opening montage of planet Caladan, the shot has always bothered me as it cross-dissolves from a great shot of a real storm ravaged coastline into a shop of a very fake looking model cliff then again to one of the top of the model cliff with the castle on it.) Made a crappy cliff and rocks with ocean for it to sit on. Will post some pictures once the rendering has finished. |

| OK, here's a render - bit plain and far away. I've just used proceedurals and some generic image maps on it so far, so it needs more work, but for now this is where it's at. I have still to model the far side of the castle, but I can't find any references that show that side. ![]() I did a bit of photoshop work on the render to get more atmosphere in there. It's a bit over dramatic though. Probably would look more at home in a Hammer Horror film! LOL |

| Managed to get a few minutes to finally do some more modeling on the palace... only had enough time to make the small tower. Also sneaked in some time to do the ornate stained glass frame for the windows of Castle Caladan. I have done the schematics for the main building of the palace but have no idea how I'm going to get part of it to work as I only have one decent reference pic of it and its got a lot of perspective in the shot. Guess I will find out when I start modeling it! |
