Space Cruiser (my very first space scene) 121

[Houdini]

I´ve seen Mr Z´s space scenes and decided to give it a try on that theme.

Here is the result(I´m proud of it guys :D )

C´mon guys,don´t be shy! WHERE ARE YOUR COMMENTS AND SUGESTIONS?! ;)

Me likes the second one :D

Hey Houdini, this looks great, may I suggest though, that you turn down the density (amount) of stars, from what I can see, they look slightly too dense, other than that, an excellent first try at a space scene! :)

Really nice Houdini!! I too like the shinning star in the second one and great modeling job on the space ship!!

Very nice Mr. H! :cool: :tu: :tu: :tu: :cool:

Nice glowing effect. I think if the dark areas of the starfield background were really black it would have more depth and the glow would have more punch. I like the texture on the ships surface :tu:

I watch every Discovery Channel program on space that ever comes on, and I've seen space photos with dense stars like this, especially in some of the larger galaxies, so the stars don't seem too dense to me. However (and here is the 121), They would appear dense like that at a greater distance, so the ship looks much more massive that it actually is. How would I fix it without losing the stars? Choose the default alpha (the fuzzy edged circle) and click Make Texture. Then use that texture as a fog alpha, use black fog. This would darken the area around the ship, but not enough to erase the stars, and would set it out from the rest.

Thanks guys!
I decided to try Mr. Z´s sugestion. Here is the result.
Were you talking about something like this?

I definitely like the last one. Great tip there, and it really made the image clearer, just like those space shots you alsways see. :tu:
