Hey!

This is what i am working on these days…
It all started for the alienware-challenge, but when I read the rules again, I quitted as fast as i could
So this was my original concept but I changed it quite a bit

and this is where I am now. I also rendered a little animation. Nothing fancy, just those things swinging around and some smoke

click on image to watch the animation

I hope you like it and have some comments and criticism

thanks,
henrik

P.S.: I am sorry for the slow server

Looks great! Only, when you click the picture it links you to the concept drawing above instead of an animation.

Love the colors on that second pic. Nice work.

like I said in blenderchat,

I love it

nice atmpsphere and all!

maybe those 2 ball could be glowing like in your sketch…it would make a big contrast between the dark area and the “balls”

that’d be awesome for some kind of a movie on a distant planet, you should sell it to someone, I’m sure it’d make a good amount of money!

@x-w:
well, i had it some kind of glowing… but it wasnt that good…

@dmbadcat:

looks great. I like the lighting and the textures, and the angle.

kaktuswasse · October 27, 2003, 4:58am

thanks to you to

doesnt anybody have some crits?

tordat · October 27, 2003, 5:43am

Hm, let’s see.

The aliens look like giant sperms

Alltaken · October 27, 2003, 5:48am

why are they swinging, are they gonna have sex?

oh and to loop an animation liek this you need to duplicate your particle emiiters many times and offset their start and end points so that each one has the EXACT same particles in the same place at the start and end, that is if you want them to be swinging for ever and ever.

sex doesn’t take forever and ever. at least when I’m involved. 8)

my only crit, atleast for now, is that… well, I tried to tell you this in chat, hm, I’m not sure how far I got? so, anyways, the ropes from where the spermythingys are hanging from, are not right. they bend from wrong place.

but then again, those are weird alien thingys, who am I to judge where they should bend.

tordat:
lol, somebody else already said that… it’s quite interesting what everybody sees in that thingies

alltaken:
well… i dont wanna loop it… i just render a longer version
It’d be too complicated to make the particles right

basse:
yeah, i already changed it… rendering a tthe moment

thanks guys
