First time I've sat down and pixeled for awhile it seems. I think before I go any further on this I should post it here. Mostly for suggestions on how the shadows should go. Should they all folow the same linear path or should they come towards the viewpoint in perspective slightly? I'm also up for any other ideas. I'm pretty set on the next two stuctures I want to add but wouldn't mind any other ideas to ponder. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/26/rktprv.png/">   This isn't very close to being done so don't be mean now.I'd also like to at least base the lightsource on the red rocket's angle. |

the sun is a very distant light source and you don't have any dramatic foreshortening so the angle of the shadows should be pretty consistent. |

I did put in another session and a half.. but it looks like I'm going to have to shelf it for the time being. I have too much real work to be working on and if I continue this it'd be very selfish. I may work on it in small bursts over the next month when I get really sick of the other tasks I need to do. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/214/rkt.png/">  |

Almost there. I like this with the pixels doubled vertically more I think. I've worked on it as it has been but when I'm done I think I should double it. Still need to finish both cranes (cables etc.), another diesel truck, a few more distant buildings , and a plam tree (maybe).. Acutally, I should add a moon or two! http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/407/tallrokets.png/">  |

The pink curves to the right of the blue crane need help. Don't ever AA 1:1 lines (99% of the time)...it never works ;)

Hmm Ok, I'll work with it more. I hope I can get it nice and clean. I'm about to open it on up. _____________________________________________________________________ Well, I'm not sure what to do so I haven't worked on the right-side most curve yet. This is an adjustment but it's still AA'd. Because I couldn't get it to look decent otherwise. I'm going for a walk for now so I figured I'd update in hopes of getting more tips. http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/3/rkt.png/">  |

Much nicer on that ledge. I think everything is clean, precise and nice. For this reason the water pattern seems wrong here. Very still water with strong reflections might be better and more dramatic? ------------- |
