Description
I picked up this neat low poly model recently, works perfectly in my attempt at a homage to the colourful 70's scifi images I grew up with.Related content

Thanks. You are right I was definitely heading for a 70's vibe.
I really like this little ship design, as you can probably tell by all the renders I've done with it.

Yes. Sci-Fi was a lot more colourful back then. And I think it was better than now. Somewhere along the line they (producers/directors) have forgotten that sci-fi is meant to be escapism, not realism. Sharp, focused images, and bright colours was a core of that philosophy. Wish to hell they would get back to it. Great job by the way.

The colors are great! There's a bit of a Ralph McQuarrie vibe here, great work.

This is amazing Graham, Blew me away on Facebook and looks even better without all that compression. I adore your style and have zero idea how you make it look like a painting. makes me realise the vast learning curve I still have to tackle.
Cheers Ross.

Thanks Ross,
This kind of model lends itself very well to the painted look alon with strong colours and bright lighting.

Fits the 1970s well, at least the 1970s I remember. Which brings up the question, what happened to the 21st century the 1970s were forecasting, did I make a wrong turn and miss it somehow?

Makes me think of the Homeworld game series with its boxy industrial look. But I suppose the 70s scifi if where that series draws its inspiration from.

Is it possible for you to make 32:9 scaled pictures, e. g. 5120 x 1440?

I think we looked at the same 70's books! They're what got me started in sci-fi!

Awesome work!
Makes me think of those books from the 1970s ... Terran Trade Alliance I think.

I was going to say the same thing and add that the art direction for the video game No Man's Sky was specifically inspired by TTA.

I don't know if I've ever seen something simultaneously more utilitarian and beautiful at the same time.

Bang on with the 70s feel! And why should space tech be all black and white? It's mostly monochrom up there, except for planets; seems to me human artefacts should be all colorful by contrast and just to say "F..k it! We got there and why not be stylish?"

Yep, definitely getting a Chris Foss vibe, minus the pervasive stripes and checker pattern motif.

Beautiful! You've certainly hidden the low poly count! Amazing work, Graham!
