Wreckage
« on: October 13, 2009, 08:21:44 PM »
I call it "Wreckage"


Story:
"Captain's Log, Stardate: unknown. I don't know where I am, or how I got here. My crew disappeared, Myself near death, My ship in critical mass, & no memory of what happened to my life at all, except this very day. as my last breaths draw near, all I can do is rest, and watch my last glimpse of the Nexus Wormhole, and the miracle of the last sunrise
For those who read this message, never fight the Borg alone, or u will realize the eternal meaning of suffering and war.
To those still fighting them, I can only say these fable words 'Cry Havoc, and Let Slip the Dogs of War.'
until help arrives, I am marooned here.
I order to conserve power, This is my last Sardate until further notice.
Unitl then, Goodbye, Starfleet.
Live long and prosper."

Used GIMP on a snapshot of a damaged Soverign class I took after a battle with a borg sphere on High AI.
Done this out of Complete boredom.
Hope u like.

would be a lot better if you dump that lens flare sunburst, and BC sun itself, make whole scene a lot darker and try to render windows black, for background pick some earie green/blue and rather small nebula with most of the background being plain space and maybe a planet far away then it will have that 'wreckege' atmosphere
also you could try to make something like opening scene of Star Wars KOTOR II, your ship heavly damaged drifts through space straight into asteroid field ;)

I know, It's my first try on this, so at least I gave it a shot.

I really like that shot of the Sovereign. She looked like she fought with the Planet Killer. Keep it up man!

I've found quite a few good "wrecked ships" at BCFiles.Com's screenshots threads.

Well, just so we're all clear. That image was concept art for the wreckage over Vulcan from ST09.
