Description
The story:The once-clear skies had suddenly become man's domain. Now peppered with massively lumbering, steam-belching airships, the air lanes above the Deutsches Reich were evolving into history's next battleground. Reich factories began producting the single manned Obenwolken in 1862 as a means to quickly survey battleground from far above other airships: equipped with a state-of-the-art onboared photographic recording system as well as paired sets of MG02 repeating cannons, the diminutive craft was highly adept at both reconnaissance and offensive missions.
Now, in the future, this ship is hidden somewhere, no one can reach.
The golden eye. The sky watcher.
== Technical details ==
My entry for the =3D-Asuarus steam punk contest.

Psot: PhotoShop CS4

Colored version
More angles and details
Faced problem with the texture, my texture file gone due to my stupidness, so the material you see here is not really textured, and i don't have time to "retexture". Hope it's good enough as much as the other entries.

This looks like something out of Last Exile and is totally awesome

It does, never thought of it this way though.
It does looks like a model to me.
Thanks bro.

Well Last Exile is kick ass so you are kick ass

Nice work! But what the heck did you do with the texture files?!? You accidentally delete them or something??

Thanks
Well, it was like 5am, was working all the time, and i have school next day. Decided to do a simple sketch with my stupid tablet, When i wanted to save it, i saved on the texture file.

LOL. I bet you learnt your lesson! Gah... I hate saving over shit...
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
LOL, i learned my lesson.
Never work till late at night.
You don't know what happened to me when i lost the texture, i worked hard on it.

Im sure that you blinked with the fury of a thousand suns. Or something of the kind.
(And no, im not insane... All the time...)

I think you meant Deutsches Reich in your artists comments, didnยดt you?

Haha, Oops, my bad
Was sleepy when i wrote it.

Nice model, but why did you put it in a corner with poor light? You could have presented it much better.

I wanted to give the idea of being abandoned ship, in a closed room.
Check for the details now, i just updated the scraps for you.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
the new angles are much better
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Hehe, random angles. but about the original render, i wanted an angle where i show all the ship. i ended up choosing this view.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
if random angles are better then the angle you choose this should tell you something
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Randomness is the best way to decide?
I got the lesson now.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Not really, it's more that the standard angle everyone is choosing to show 'everything' is just absolutely boring.
Bird's eye view or worms eye are much more interesting.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Thanks for the advice, honestly my biggest problem is choosing the angle, no matter what the model is even if it was a box, a creative angle can be so helpful. I took my lesson.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
modelling is certainly not your problem
It helped me much to practice photography.
This way you can really walk in a scene and get a more physical understanding of camera placement. I learned with the proper angle small things look big and big small and you can use this knowledge in 3D to give the watcher an better impression of the size of your models.
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
Yeah, lots of photographers told me that learning photography would help me a lot. And that's why i'm taking photography lessons, starts next week.
I'm sure it'll help.

Hmm I quite like the ligtening, but somehow the front is a bit dark, so maybe just a touch more light?
btw I like the Textures as is

Thanks mate, i wanted to give the feeling of abandoned ship, in a closed room.
