Description This picture is made up of two constituents,the background photo was taken by my wife from the window of an airliner as it crossed the alps on the way to Greece last October. It has had it's colours adjusted, but is otherwise unchanged. The spacecraft was modelled in Blender 2.49b. UV textures were created in photoshop, and the picture was also assembled, with minor adjustments in photoshop.

Awesome new work Colin! That ship is a really awesome design, looks very fast and very slick. Good use of one of those photos! I remember you were planning on using them soon.

Thanks very much, I cannot take credit for the mountains in the background, as the photograph was taken by my wife out of the window of a plane on a flight to greece. But the spacecraft is a model that I built in blender, and is something that I hope to use in a short animated video for a track off my next album. (That is proving quite tricky, but hopefully I shall crack it!) The main thing with this picture was getting the lighting and the shadows to match.

I know, I've read it tell your wife it's good though
good luck with animation, I bet it will be awesome
I know it's not easy to match light, but you did it great I love everything about this picture.
