Default New DARKEXODUS pictures ....

Here is a WIP of the Galactica over Earth as can be read in Martoks DARK EXODUS wonderful fanfix. I have a number of thing still to do and mainly learn about this Lightwave prog but I am getting there..
I have no Modelers names on this yet so sorry but thay will come later.. so I can save what little web space the finished WIP will be posted in the same locations as
the WIPs (If you get me) and so on..



As always let me know what you think and feed back is apprceated .. I may or may not be able to do as you suggest but I will try..

Martok and Stevew and Pixeltex I hop you like it.

Battlestar Galactica 1978

I Don't Think I Would Have the Patience to Try To Create Something Like This...

I'm Running 512 MB DDR RAM on My Computer at the Moment with an AMD Athlon XP 2600+ CPU, Running Somewhere Near 2.0 Gig Clockspeed... But I Really Don't Think My System Could Handle Running Anything Quite That Big & Bold.

I Knew someone Who Was Doing High Detail Landscape Rendering With Terrigen,
His System was Running an AMD Barton 2800+ Running 1.5 Gig DDR RAM Memory +
Over Clocked & Tweeked to the MAX With Massive Cooling Fans... Etc... He was Very Arrigant about His Work... But Then Again, None of His "Best" Stuff Came Anywhere the Quality You've Captured Here.

Never Leave Your Wingman

See You On the Flight Deck :

Hey, This Kid Don't Sign On For No Oneway Mission...We're Coming Back!

Thanks Haveke I have a 640 Ram and I am using LightWave 3d program . but I only positioned the ship and planet and moved the lighting the model makers did the hard work i think (not been an expert) you wuld have enough power to run Lightwave.

I apprecate your comments it great getting the feed back.

Yeah, My MOBO is Now 3 Years Old Now... Can Only Handle 2 Gig RAM. (I Forgot to Mention Only PC-2100) Currently I've Got 2 Sticks of 256 and Only 2 Slots) I've Got to Save Up & Buy Myself another HD.... (the 40 Gig gets Kinda Cluttered Sometimes)

For What I Do Online, My Computer is Pretty Well Suited... Now If I Could Only Afford Broadband Cable Internet!!

I Guess I'm What You'd Call a Collector: I Really Enjoy Looking at these Fine Pieces of Art Work. Hey, My First & Only Attempt at "Art or Something Like It"... is What I Call Red Squadron...

Another Thing I've Found is: By Building Your Own System... (Get the Best Stuff) You Can Really Customize Your PC to do things Much Better... there are MOBOs out there Now, that can probably Handle More than 4 Gigs of RAM... Kinda Scary in a Manner of Speaking, But just as Medical Technology Grows by Leaps & Bounds... So Does Computers... I Would Be So BOLD As to Compare the Ongoing Computer Generations With That of an Insect Colony

Improving With Each GENERATION Just like the BORG & CYLONS

Can Anyone Out there Remember Back When...
