found a suiting texture almost right away-- rendered 9rpp with depth of field, touched up the pixelation in Ps. i dodged around the engines alot and added those bolys--i think those engines are the trademark of the nebuchadnezzar. i made one of those matrix screens from the tutorial that was up last week (who didnt?) and decided to beldn it w/ the image. Ill be posting it in the gallery tonight but for now i have to run----- thanks for taking a looks plz tell me what you think! BTW---im planning to do a couple more images w/ the ship, maybe w/ squiddies chasing it or something.

DAmn, nice job on this so far...I don't see much wrong with it, but lets give the people w/ the keeeeeeeeeen eye a view. :) MD

This is a stunning model and I'm very impressed with what you've achieved, it's almost the real thing.............that is if anything is real in the Matrix. Catlin

not too exciting...

I've got to say, its a damn fine model (and scene). The outlets are a bit too white for my liking (haven't seen the movie), but thats just a personal preference thing. Rest looks great.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the wireframe is making my eyes go crazzzzzzzzy...hehe...excellent work my friend! MD

Sorry for the posting craze, but I find it amazing enough that you can have a wiremodel like that going AND have Photoshop open. I ran into probs just running Bryce w/ my theatre image. What's your system specs? (Processor, RAM, vid card) MD

i gotta dell (blah) 4300s p4 1.60 ghz and 384 mb of ram. -even then the file was slowing the comp down, AND photoshop was open, usually i dont like having it open when bryce is up cuz it tends to crash. - - i had bryce on my old computer for a bit, and i too could barley run it w/ out problems.

wow..how the expletive deleted do you keep track of all those booleans in wireframe mode?..;) Possible idea- there's a texture called 'eclectic', made by lunariad.com, that I've used (maybe overused..;)to simulate lightning..if you make it a bit more transparent, and put it over the emitters (or whatever they call them..;), it might work.

Great work on this mess! Looks like a lot of energy spent here, I'm glad someone got something out of that movie...! Very complex. Do you keep track of it in your head? Ridiculous! There's a few God-level Bryce modelers around, and we hope you would consider yourself one of them! Only the lightning is a little too-duplicated, but that's nothing compared to the rest of it...

Jordan, this rocks! Guys, how can you do things so fast and good? This is an amazing model in a super scene! S.

All I can say is AHHHHHH - beautiful...Sharen
