<div class="IPBDescription">finally done</div> <b>Facts</b>
<i>Time it took-</i> 6 days - 45 hrs
<i>original size-</i> 5000 x 3482 pixel
<i>psd file size-</i> 98mb
<i>layers-</i> 78


<b>info</b>

this is 50% original size. if anyone wants to original size pls mail me,, the original size is 998 kb. I know there are flaws in the pic. but seriously, 6 days is enough on a pic :/

the 2nd pic is just something i whipped up for TSA clan, cus i did use their clan name in the making of this pic.

<b>Story</b>

The battle on Hera Station 16-B had been raging for months. The marines now lacking in soldiers had called for reinforcements. The TSA-R21 ship had come to answer their call.

    Whoa!! I really like the first 1, it looks sooo cool...The Ships front thruster shuld actually be countering the back thrusters to slow the ship down though... but hey im nitpicking....

    Nice work!! <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Looking VERY good *envies the photoshop skill*.

    One question though. Is the ship going to ram hera since the afterburner is at full throttle it seems <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    ok i am goign to give a freelancer style speculation here..

    you know how in mp freelancer you go into cruis and once you press s you stop and instantly go to 60, well if your a good pilot you can go into cruise and then isntantly go to 40 about 5 m from the docks and then you can slowly move towards or aroudn the docks,, actually u can go from cruise to 0, but ill jsut sya 40 for now (think i played freelancer wayyyy to much so i know all the flight tricks <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> )

    thats why the ship is in cruise, cus the pilot WOULD be a damn good pilot now wouldnt it?? you wouldnt have some jonko pilot flying such a light aircraft. it doesnt even have weapons, there for its manouverability and speed would need a definate good pilot to manouver and handle the ship.

    so there <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    now dont get me started with reality because we havent created such ships to rate it toward reality , rremember anythings possible.

    My only possible critical comment is that the ship looks more like a fighter than a dropship to me. The rest... (shuts up due to lack of suitable adjectives to describe the awesomeness)

    This is a very profesional work, I'm amazed on the effort that you gave to this picture and you already have my respect for it.

    Two things I've noticed:
    1) The lines on the platform don't actually match in a straight line =P
    2) The left wing of the dropship is kinda... large or in a strange angle

    Apart from those two things I think this is a godlike work and I would like to see the actual full-sized picture.

    Another thing I may add is that the coloring of the cannon/valley/thing the station is on is beautiful.

    woah.. nice one <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    however there's a few things that i'd like to point out
    1: I would've imagined that TSA ships are more chunky and capable, and in the TSA colours
    2: That ship looks like its flying very fast, like it was about to crash into hera's landing pad, rather than land on it <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
    3: someone already pointed it out, but yeah, there should be a battle going on inside, or on the landing pad maybe.
    4: a lot of the top and bottom of the painting seems to just be all flat colours, you could've added something there.

    otherwise, its a great job. I hate painting super high res, it knackers my comp out <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    lol you shouldve seen my pc perform once i opened that file everytime..

    the cpu usage - 80%
    memory usage- 98%

    :/ defiantley slowed my pc, soemtimes zoomin in and out took a min or so, and saving took 2-5 mins.

    like i said, I KNOW there are flaws, but 6 days is enough on the pic.

    Thats your connection, Davis. I see 'em fine, first time seeing 'em.

    Just because I am a critting critter, I'll say these.

    Overall, I like it, but it looks like you went so stylized, you put personal preference before appropriate feel- this looks too...soft, to be NS. Also, angles and dimensions don't look correct- it looks like the landing pad and walk to it are slightly tilted towards the camera, as well as the hallway being a bit wierd. Then the Wall up there doesn't look right angle wise either. On the ship, you've heard it all before.

    Great job though- I couldn't stand spending more than 2 days on a pic, and most STILL are crud. Great job, again.
