Nice idea for a scene. I really like the lighting inside the Pelican, and then how its dark outside. It contrasts very well.

I do however agree on the visor it must be fixed =x

The fire casts a glow on him, as would be expected with a close fire and the reflective armor, no, I will not alter that. In addition, the light source is very, very clearly behind him, and the doorway is scorched from the flames. With any reasonable analysis, one would be able to determine the source of the fire. As for the visor, if you people didn't catch it, there is no emphasis on textures in the scene, which includes the visor. Furthermore, I already addressed it, so repeating the same thing only annoys me.

Wow H2 stuff.. makes me want to pull up one of my ollllld scenes and work on it.
Then get really mad at myself when the final product looks like ass.

I'll get on that now.

Turn it upside down and he looks like spiderman lol. That's about as intelligent as I can get I'm afraid.

How many times did you finish the Halo 2 material? =p

Well, see, the difference between that and this is that I was doing a lot of guesswork as to how the shad tags worked; there's no longer any of that.

Tural, assuming the Pelican is moving wouldn't the marine be more horizontal than vertical?

Was that a cutout from the alpha?
There seems to be aliasing underneath the left knee if not.
Also: What did you need a few days ago when you tried to DC with me on AIM?

Not done yet, I got an awesome new reference, so I'm going to touch a few things up.

I didn't need anything; I was just going to show you what a halo 3 spartan with accurate shaders looked like. No worries.

Here's mine, and yes, it is related to Halo:

Although it's probably the worst painting I've EVER done.

Tural · Post by **Tural** » Tue Aug 05, 2008 2:45 am

I wouldn't consider that applicable to this topic. One wouldn't render a field and post it here, citing that there is grass in Halo. Please, keep posts here directly related.

Accepted Images:
- Renders of any kind. ie: XSI, Maya, 3dsmax, etc.
- Scanned freehand drawings / paintings
- Digital drawings / paintings ie: Photoshop, PSP, etc.

This is what he said on the first post... thought it applied as freehand drawings...

Hes talking about how Philly's had absolutely nothing to do with Halo.
