Stunning work- A huge effort!
I'd love to see a few more still shots!
Thank you -
Philster
Thank YOU Phil! Those really helped me bring out accurate details. Without those it wouldn't have been as successful! I plan on doing a few more stills, should go much faster now that I'm not making an animation!

Here's a sample if you haven't heard it, quite beautiful and used in the awesome game "Homeworld"

Here's another interesting test I did today. In wanting to show more of my model, I rendered a spherical image and then made a flash VR from it. You'll need Flash and Java , to be able to view this (which I think most computers have nowadays) but I thought it was pretty neat!
Aries Cockpit Interior VR
You know, I was just thinking of doing one the other day... I'll see what I can do
Second, that VR: outside of some perspective warping that just seems to come with the interface, it really felt like I was IN there looking around. It's so bloody cool!

Couple of weird artefacts on the ceiling, probably some kind of camera or flash error, but it looks odd. otherwise a superb set!
I so want to see that updated with current luxury airliner design, livery and seats, it would look redonk.

Passenger Area Spherical Render
Done the spherical renders for work in the past.. can be a pain sometimes.. but this look excellent!
and yeah.. most of the time its an overnight render at highest settings.. especially with alot of stuff in there.. Usually use Vray for the renders.. and if there are regular Maya materials.. it takes forever, and renders pixelated.. so have to use the Vray materials ( which are better anyways)
Looking great!:thumb:
