This is a shot I’ve been working on for a while. Ever since I finished my TOS Enterprise I’ve wanted to recreate the construction scene from ST09 but in the Prime Universe. I know it doesn’t make much sense to build the Enterprise on Earth but for me, it’s just more interesting than another spacedock shot that’s not anything new. Anyway, I hope you like it.
I like it very much. If I were to point anything I don’t like, I’d say the walltexture seems stretched and monotonous, and the wetness doesn’t look convincing. Other than that, it’s great.
i like the camera perspective, gives a real gusty engineering/construction feel/tone to the piece, yeah something the space-dock never really achieves IMO. Keep working up the textures, etc…
>> my one suggested change : put some more hi-tech/future-crane-machines in place, that would really make it perfect.
The reason that I didn’t is that I wanted to show that the ship is ready for launch. Anyway, I consider this image finished (or abandoned) as I’d like to work on other things. It’s been a useful learning experience and I enjoyed making it, even though, as pointed out above, it has many flaws.
ok i follow u…yeah it’s really a gr8 job, can’t wait till i learn blender, def want to make some ship concepts into full models.
