the model is about 50% done. then the textures. in the final render ill redo the lighting to make it look more natural. ( right now the shadows are too hard.
also ill have to do some magnet moves on some objects to make them appear as if they are actually sitting there and not floating in space. so..heres what i got so far.

I remember seeing your earlier version of this, it's looking f*n awesome now dude. Excellent work!

You have a great eye for detail. The color scheme is great. I hope you keep it. It reminds me of the ochre colors that Boris and Frazetta used as backdrops.

Hey Ambient,
I've seen this one on other forums but have refrained from commenting until now but damn, this is looking pretty sweet so far.

Really the only critique that I've got is that I think it would be a little bit stronger compositionally if the walkway in the foreground was a little more towards the middle and closer to the camera. Not absolutle in the center but closer to the middle. Does that make sense?

Anyhow, like I said, looking sweet, can't wait to see it finished (I guess we'll have to wait awhile for that though, huh? Oh well, maybe I'll see you at Siggraph if I go and we can talk about it there).

Oh yeah, BTW, I was wondering, are you gonna submit this one to Raph when it's finished?
