So, I’m working on an adventure for the Serenity RPG<\/a>, which I call Promised Land<\/strong>. The name has a story which will be revealed in the adventure and not here.<\/p>\n

First I bought a package of untextured space ship models and Renderosity<\/a>, that’s why there where just dirt cheap.<\/p>\n

Then I took FilterForge<\/a> and downloaded some of the filters I haven’t bothered with before, some nice spaceship hull textures. Here is a good hull texture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And a bump map.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here is another hull texture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And a bump map<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Then I used good old Cheetah3D<\/a> to texture the model and do some simple UV-mapping. And then I rendered the spaceship.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This looks pretty good I think. Now I went back to FilterForge for a background, I was first playing with a space, then I remembered Betis super moon filter, which I used to make this backdrop image.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, I started DAZ Studio<\/a> to render a spaceship cockpit that I purchased a while back at Renderosity, just for a moment like this.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, using OmniGraffle<\/a> to merge these three images into one image, I got this result.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I think that a picture says more than 1024 words, and showing this to the players is far more interesting than try to explain this i words.<\/p>\n

I hope you like it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
