here's my space thing, it's not very good though. ^_^; But I was just playing aroundf with things. I thought of an awesome idea for a half spcae half land idea.
Kindof a dream I had, where I was on this slab of floating rock in space, with like.. trees and stuff growing on it, and there was a gap in the atmostphere, where I could constantly see space and earth, day or night.
As for critique; and yes i know this is not done, but here's what i'm thinking:
1) The mountains on the planet itself (that the view is "shot" from) look a little flat, (2D i guess you could say?) and could use a little more definition. They remind me more of hills than actual mountains. There is nothing rigid about them. Also, I think they need to be darker. Quite light to look realistic, and with all this light coming from space, the "dark side" of any surface would definately be deeper in hue. And the reflections of the mountains, could use some work. I forget what exactly you need to do, because I haven't worked with terragen in a long time, but there needs to be more of a ripple effect on the water. Theres way too much definition to the reflections.
2) I think the blues and dark shades from the spacescape really overpower the colors on the planet itself.
3) Some work on the "shoreline" is needed. Unless it's a pool of mercury or something, it definately wouldn't end so abruptly. And the water itself could use more definition. It looks too much like a flat mirror, reflecting space.
4) I think the smaller planet could use a change in color? To make it stand out a little more from the larger planet.
5)The ground looks a bit bland. It could be more lush and vibrant.
I'm sorry if I sound mean, and I'm tearing this apart bit by bit. I don't intend to whatsoever. But I definately love where your headed with this piece, and I hope any thoughts I had could help make this that much better.
I'm anxious to see it's progress.
