Hi all, minor update to the surfacing, and I've settled on a vent and panel design for the roof. Unfortunately it's over-bright but that's just for the radiosity solution, I may do a double skin of lighting polygons and surfaced lights. I'm gonna add a few more panels to the walls, but otherwise that's just about done! I'm finishing this so I can steal that bit of the mesh for the back of the shuttle bay, which is going an extensive remodelling, and refining

Well sometime, I have a few other projects on the go hehe

That looks absolutely fantastic!

sweet man. the texture doesn't look subtle enough imh. Sweet work!

**tobian** · 11-16-2006, 12:42 AM

It was really hard to tell how that would work out till the thing had gone through more than 10 passes - I think there was something like 35 and over 3 hours render time, because of the reflection blurring and monte-carlo radiosity! Before that all you could see was noise, and once it'd gone too far I couldn't be bothered to start it over hehe

Yeah I think I'll knock back the reflection channel noise a little

Otherwise thanks for the compliments!

still looks great tobian, the whole thing will be so worth it when your done.

that rooms pretty shiny, the cleaners must of been going all night with the polish

**Freak** · 11-16-2006, 07:34 AM

Very nice. Tobian, if it not already it will be one of the best station out there.

**tobian** · 11-16-2006, 10:46 AM

Hehe yeah it'll be being tweaked shortly, it's tough to get the reflections right! Untill it reached a certain number of passes, it was just REALLY speckly, and it was hard to say how heavy the effect was!

**tobian** · 11-17-2006, 09:45 AM

Et voilà ! Way less shiny, and way more time to render LOL

**Freak** · 11-17-2006, 09:51 AM
