More for learning purposes than anything else. Besides, I Wanted to try terragen too. Whored tuts for the planets, at least at first, to grasp how. Always a nice idea to take a few tuts of the same thing btw, then you can apply the best of all worlds as you see fit.
Landscape at the bottom; Terragen
My garden/walls etc for photographic textures
Everything else; Photoshop CS2
A3, 300dpi
Good work. One thing i don't like: the blue planet is transparent in the shadow part so we can see the brown one... :(
terragen - wtf? If this landscape is done there i want this porgram too! :)
Planets arn't transparent, the brown one is in the foreground :P
Yeah, terragen - it's good fun, and really easy for quick results. However, I really feel that the human element is removed to an extreme and it is a little too “the computer does all the work”. To much so for my liking.
Have a fiddle - http://www.planetside.co.uk/terragen/
Yeah Terragen is more or less Bryce3d - both used for generation of realistic landscapes and terrains.
I like the results, looks brilliant. How long did it take to render?
Thanks Bio :)
It took about 9 hours to render in total. Keeping in mind it was prety large render - 3508 pixels width and about the same height.
really nice, but whats the matrix code doing in front of all this beauty :O I'd delete that.
nice work
Top part is sci-fi and bottom is fantasy? Who knows what kinds of weird thoughts exist inside Xeophex's head underneath all that hair... oh he cut it off now hehe :lol:
Yep, it's all gone. Nice and short now.
Well, with the poster, I guess I just wanted to give an overall feel of sci-fi (fantasy I wasn't so worried about) - hence the planets. Nothing as thought out as; "Top part is sci-fi and bottom is fantasy?", if it appears like that, its purley on accident. I added the matrix code at the end because I felt something could be up the top there and I really couldn't be bothered to start on painting nebulas. Besides, the matrix is my favorite sci-fi film AND I was living out my... glee in the recently discovered usefulness of the 'screen' layer mode (black becomes invisible) - Goodbye endless layer-merge and separating from background with layer-masks, w00t. :D
