...the image

"Enroute To Aladna"
[ external image ]

No more ships from screenshots for this one, just direct 3D renderings...hope the result is good anyway....really hard to work at 7500x5625 resolution, but I've learned a lot of the things I needed to work for another project...unfortunately, the project was aborted for lack of time available, but that test image was too far in development to leave it in the scraps

Thanks a lot to the Egosoft guys for their critics and suggestions on the first versions of this thing...maybe still not that good (it still was created just as a "quick" test), but surely better than before!

1280/1600/2048 resolutions pack available for download from the DA page

And sorry for the boring introduction, I had this thing in mind for a long time, voices from ships and stations computers keep haunting me in my nightmares

Very nice work mate. Definite desktop material.

[Syndrome]

You modeled all that!? Incredible! Awesome work.

[Aken_Bosch]

No no, I'm not that good (for now ), models are imported from the game, using doubleshadow's DBOX, then I set up a scene in 3DSMax with lighting, shadows, cameras and such, rendered it (actually, there are about 3-4 separate renders in there, blended in PS), then "post-produced" in photoshop with the background (that's all made by me instead)

Thanks

Still, the end result is spectacular.
