First of, if your using a cap service, your seriously demented because you can use it up VERY fast.

Second, images over 1024x768 cant be uploaded so they will have to be hosted on a 3rd party site.

Third, i'd be interested to know Captain Elgy whether the Nebula is super imposed on the planet, since that kind of clarity and glow could never be seen in BC  :roll:  :wink:

My guess is it's not BC, none of these are. They're all pre-renders.

BCDS, Blaxxer and Neb, you're all right. These are from my BC Elements Wallpaper Pack which contains BC ships, stations & Backgrounds with other art and images super-imposed to make a wallpaper image. None of these images are rendered, the ships are all screenshots from BC.

The above Nebula Class was made by CR, personally I'm interested in Adonis' Cheyenne Refit, I hope he releases this for BC sometime in the future!! :D

Nice planet in the first one, shame that a Galaxy kitbash is in it, tho. (that is NOT a Nebula Class).

Heres a quick one I've done.

It's Venus. And It was done In 3DS max. However, some people do have a beta of my Sol System mod (i think), which includes that texture, plus more high-res.

Anyone, if you have my lost mod, can I have it please?

Sorry, misread the question, it's a picbash, the Delta Wing (ts "official" name) Is a render of the model used in the show (I just have some images)

Hey guys -

I was trying something new render-wise. Let me know what you think. Background is from NASA. Aegean Class of course is my own. Rendered in Max.

well, I just realized that, I should've had the ship backlit too. I mean, look at the amount of light coming from from the colliding bodies. There should be some massive light coming out from that point, and a lens flare.

I think I'll rework that image, and see what I can do.

Finally, I have found this thread!  Here is some wallpaper that I created. Note- the backgrounds are not mine.

one thing you should try is to adjust the lighting of the models to match the backdrops
here's one example, as you can see he is lit from above and behind just like the photo, and the light source is the same color as the light in the photo
(http://images.wikia.com/stexpanded/images/b/b1/Dergoscave.jpg)
note, he is also lit by the lights on his rifle
