Description
After catching some Star Blazers on SyFy last week, I guess I was feeling a tad nostalgic for one of my favorite cartoons as a kid. As I was growing up in Seattle, I used to watch the English syndicated version before school as I ate breakfast - you couldn't get me away from the crappy TV in the kitchen until the credits completed rolling. But I digress, it was a blast to catch the first couple episodes and my DVR is now set ...I just hope they run the series before bailing as SyFy all too often does.
This one was setup and rendered in Vue 9.5 Infinite and seriously put the screws to my Mac Pro as it rendered over 80-hours ...I guess the crazy atmosphere was a little much. On the upside, running in full 64-bit mode, Vue utilized a cool 10GB of my available RAM to keep things humming along.
Thanks for looking!

Love the feel and sky. This has the hero or "pinnacle" scifi effect as my brother likes to call it.

Did you make this model, or is it available online somewhere? If you liked star blazers you may like this story written by a friend. http://thelittleflowerchronicles.blogspot.com/

I'm hanging out for the English subbed version of the new movie, from what I've seen us old fans will have a blast.

I don't often use the word, but this image is "awesome" - and so is the rendering time! You may just have reached the limits of what Vue can do. Brilliant work, it has the look of a still from a big-screen movie.

I'm not familiar with that show, but this is a great image, I love how the ship is coming out of the ground, wow!

magnificent scene and awesome render!

Very nicely done. BTW, the Japanese version "Space Battleship Yamato" did a better job of storytelling than the English "Star Blazers." All the episodes are available with English subtitles if you search on You Tube.

Amazing image the battleship Yamato never lokked so good. They made a movie based on the real Japanese Battleship Yamato which is actually quite good. It was the worlds largest Battleship and flagship of the Japanese fleet during WW2. Sunk by US divebombers and submarines during the battle of okinawa 290 kilometres (180 mi) southeast of Kyushu it lies under 340 metres (1,120 ft) of water in two main pieces; a bow section comprising the front two thirds of the ship, and a separate stern section.
