cool, only thing that doesnt look right is the skulks.. they look really stiff, lims and head could be relaxed alittle

JediYoshi

Honest Critisism: The skulks look a bit stiff, and I'm just not sure about the background altogether, very professional though, good to see high res at some point <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

Yeah it's redered in Bryce 5 to get the sky, haze, and mountains. I used the skulk jaws texture from in game so it's not very high res, I'll try to increase the texture size and blur it a tiny bit in Photoshop. The skulks were done in haste and I'll fix them. Also, I'll make the gunfire more pretty. As for 1024x768, I dont have anywhere to host it and it would be too big as an attachment.

the shadows on the bottom teeth look really screwed up.
other that that if you take everything into consideration, it is a very nice image

gg, keep it up

New version; this one took about 20 hpurs to render because the gunfire defracted the light in many ways and Bryce had to calculate it all. Changes include a slightly smoother mouth texture, relaxed aliens and different gunfire.

RhoadsToNowhere

The aliens look a lot more natural, and the lighting looks a tad better too though. But those muzzle flashes don't look that great IMO -- almost like something you'd see in a comic book, not a realistically rendered scene like that one. Still, far better than I could do. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' valign='absmiddle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

nice, but the muzzle flashes look like poo =( id suggest you do them in photoshop instead

BTW how did u get the skulk models into bryce? i can get them into 3dsm using ms3d but all i get is the mesh, i have to pose them in ms3d ( ;( )

Vecdran

those muzzle flashes need some serious work

find some picks of some realy muzzle flashes, shrink them a bit, and pop em on and mess around with 'em till they look right

DeadlyFreeze

better, cept the muzzel flash...whoa

the marine is standing on 1 leg........in heavy armor....... firing 2 pistols..........

DeadlyFreeze

I think hes suppose to be steping forward

Lightning2

Alright, I changed the flashes a bit through Bryce, making them more fuzzy and additive. The lights that had been infront of the barrels to simulate the light given off by a muzzle flash shined through more brightly, and caused a much higher contrast in the image than previously. This was unexpected but not altogether bad in my opinion.

I know this kind of goes to the fundamental core of your picture, but the terrain is a huge canyon. So your characters are giants :x

Anyway, it's nice... but I liked the less-yellowy one better.

Lightning2

I meant for it to be thin lines of sediment... Like the kind you see in muddy/sandstone formations.

Jon_Vincible

Awesome, but i liked the ones with the stiff skulks better, it's funny, and funny is good.
