I've started a New Folder called "Ancient History"

That's where I'm going to put anything I come across that's more than 5 years old. This is the first post to go into that folder. Any particular reason? No :D

This image was made for a book called "Concept Design" published by Scott Robertson. In those days, I was struggling mightily to wrap my head around 3D, and also how to take the 3D rendered image and modify it in Photoshop.

The struggle continues today - but I think I've made some small progress - certainly in terms of speed, if not quality. However I thought it might be interesting to post a few images from earlier times :)

In this image, a rescue party has arrived at an outpost on a remote planet and found no survivors. The large geometric structure visible in the distance is an unknown, but it is not of human manufacture.

God!! Fantastic atmosphere work. The big structure on the right gives some good strangeness.
It's one of the best SF pictures I've seen in months, seriously. I want SF movies to look like that!

Lots of atmosphere in this one. I like the style, even if it's an "oldie" :)

All that atmosphere and dust is hiding some flaws, but I think it gave the picture a stronger mood in the end :)

Atmosphere and dust hide flaws even in real life, so don't you worry about that :D
