I love it, great work. Personally I like the color version myself. Nice detail with the vegetation. |

Cheers lads :)
Here are the layers I rendered and composited in Paintshop Pro 7. It was a real pain, have to get Photoshop (or try Gimp).

Nope not from me, it's allowed.
Graysho, this render went right up the charts as one of my favorites. Very well done!
If you squint your eyes I think I see that gargoyle wayyyy in the back next to the flea.....:) |

Very nice image. :cool:

I can't comment on Gimp, but I can tell you PSP9 is better for layers than PSP7 [& way cheaper than Photoshop], if you can still find anywhere that's got it. 10 looked good but had some annoying bugs, although that was soon after it came out, so they might have been fixed/patched since then. Not tried 11 yet. |

Very Cool, I expecially like the light inside. It seems to make the image more eerie. |

Yeah baby yeah! Now that's a great picture. Work like this reminds me why I love trueSpace so much - although I never forget that!
This a masterful piece of work Graysho and I've enjoyed watching it progress - Well done |

Great work GraySho! Was very cool seing how you put the layers together. Thanks for posting that too! :banana:
I have PSP 9 (*huge* improvement over 7), but I switched to GIMP because it worked better with my tablet...
GIMP's a bit odd and takes some getting used to, but I forced myself to do it and I'm not regretting it. Layers, custom brushes, lots of free plug-ins out there for it... pretty much can do anything PS can do. Not to mention it has a great price.... :D
You still need a good vector package for doing illustration and concept stuff... I've been putzing around with Inkscape and so far it looks pretty fun:

I'm very glad you all like it, it took quite a while to complete, though not everything made it into the final render. Thanks.

Does PSP 9 have channels? If not I'm not interested. I've watched Parva's Multipass rendering course, and simply couldn't do (some of) that stuff in Paintshop Pro. I'm gonna try GIMP anyway. |

Err.... haven't the foggiest. :o Maybe j_edwards can answer that 1. There is a feature that mentions channels, but whether it's what you're on about or not... http://homepage.ntlworld.com/alien42/smilies/dunno.gif
If you mean being able to adjust the levels of Red, Green, or Blue in an image... I think so, but I'm not really an expert in 2D [or a lot of other things], I just tend to learn what I need to, as & when necessary.
From PSP9 help file:Use the Channel Mixer command to increase or decrease the red, blue, or green colour channel by a percentage of itself and the other two channels. Use this command when you want to adjust colour channels individually.
Also:When you split an image into its RGB, HSL, or CMYK channels, Paint Shop Pro creates a greyscale image for each channel. Use one of these channel images to create a mask for the original image or another image.
Any of that sound like what you're looking for? |

Simply Outstanding GraySho, detail, textures, lighting and mood all perfect. One of the best images I've ever seen in TS.

I see that your rendering made the Gallery and it's placement is NOT where it should be. I like the two that won a lot. I think you just had stiff competition. This was one of my all time favorite TS renderings done. I hope you create more for us because I've learned a lot from you already!

Perhaps I might not have hit the criteria for a gallery winner. Anyway, congrats to the winners, well deserved. That won't stop me from trying again ;) |

I have to agree with Steinie. As soon as I saw your finished picture the first thing I thought was "ahhhh *%$^&". It's a beautiful image and I'm surprised it's not in the top two. Yet secretly pleased as well! It's an odd feeling. |

Time to move on to something new. After the long break I just felt I had to show this scene from a closer perspective. Done and rendered in tS6.6. Next will be something tS7.6 related. |
